I like planting food plots, spring or fall, as much as I do hunting deer. Just a couple of pictures from this week's work.

Is that one of the foreign made roto-tiller/seeder combos? I have been using food plots since the early 90's for both spring and fall.

Agree, working the land with a purpose, is the joy.

Thanks, but I want to get one of those tiller/seeders that Ranch Dog has. I found them on-line about 2 months ago but was worried about ordering one site unseen and then getting parts if needed. Found one made in USA that is priced a whole lot more than the foreign made ones.

I do have an old John Deere Model B that works great. But this tiller/seeder will till, seed and pack at with one pass. I like the fact that is will work better in smaller food plots that where space is limited to turn. It will make a much better seed bed also.

I took a chance last week(great forecast for rain bang that never happened and army worms all around) and planted my fall plots last Tuesday in prepared plots that had a lot of rain on them. I planted Iron and Clays 50# along with oats 100#/acre. Cowpeas were starting to come up last Friday and deer are hammering them now with lack of follow up rains. Had .25" yesterday but may be to late for peas, but the oats was just starting to come up. So I will have it, if the army worms don't get it first.

This the model from China I found when searching for the USA made model. I found others like Ranch Dogs after searching more. Various prices, models and HP requirements on all of them.

Oh this makes me so jealous. I can not wait to play farmer bob someday and actually have a place where I can do spring and fall plots with what I want and not what someone else wants. I have dreams, at least these pics spur them on and don't dash them.

Also interested in the implement. Any info about it other than pics?

That is why I quit using peas, especially on my small plots, they are so fickle and deer can wipe them out like tossing a hunerd, oats OTOH almost always survive until a rain for me. I like them for helping improve the dirt, if they can survive long enough.. I have planted them with good results in the spring on larger areas though (bottom land)

I like food plotting, but don't have all the tools I would want and time is definitely a factor. Would like to add a tiller and a planter of some kind, but its not in the works at the moment. Just disking leaves a lot of native growth that will come back and we don't have a boom sprayer either. Some day....
