Understanding the home of the animal is key to habitat improvement. Testing and feedback are vital for developing seed blends. The journey of creating a seed company can be fulfilling. Continuous improvement is necessary in food plotting. I look at things differently than most people. We want to have complete coverage. You want to weatherproof your plots as much as you can. Healthy plants, healthy soil, healthy forages, healthy deer. We want to hear everything, the good, the bad and the ugly. The deer have to hit it, then they have to hit it hard. It's not complicated, it's not rocket science. We want as much tonnage as we can per acre. The industry focuses on a lot of fall focus. Ninety-five percent of what we test never makes it.
