[QUOTE="cbay, post: 454575, member: 35177"] Our recently planted corn didn't turn out too good with all the rain. As a hobby farmer perfect planting conditions make you look good; otherwise things look a lot different. With all the rain we're getting it may be a while before we can get back in and replant the upper half of this field. [ATTACH=CONFIG]158108._xfImport[/ATTACH] Winter rye is the cereal grain of choice for wildlife management. As a cover crop it produces excellent nutrients for the soil and re-seeds itself while feeding the deer all through the winter. [ATTACH=CONFIG]158111._xfImport[/ATTACH] We maintain around six acres of clover for the wildlife. Durana white clover variety produces lots of forage spring through mid winter in our area and is the most valuable crop we have for the deer and other wildlife. If we had to choose between the clover or corn we would have to choose the clover because of the consistent forage it provides for most of the year.
