What to Plant Now for Deer, Ducks and Turkeys

We begin planting food plots for deer at this time of the year, in the early summer. We’re planting some Mossy Oak BioLogic BioMass. This blend has a mixture of soybeans, iron clay peas, and Lablab. This very nutritious blend can be planted in the spring and summer. These plants produce a high protein food that helps bucks build stronger and bigger antlers, and it’s really good for the does that are nursing fawns.

You may think that using herbicides, fertilizers and possibly a second herbicide treatment during the off-season is a lot of work and a lot of expense. However, if you can get several years of utilization out of your clover fields instead of having to replant every year, you may save some money and time. Clover can provide almost year-round food for wildlife with good weather and proper maintenance.

Tough Turkey Hunting in Minnesota
