Food Plots
Food plots can be defined as a planted area set aside to act as a food source for wildlife. They serve as a great way to provide a reliable food source for wildlife when their native food sources are limited. If done properly food plots will, hopefully, lead to the development of a healthier wildlife population.

Relatively anyone can create their own food plots if space allows. Unused land can be easily and affordably transformed into a food plot. The project can be fun, educational and attract wildlife for your personal viewing.
Each year my family dedicates a portion of our land to food plots. Although it is not an overwhelming portion, it is enough to provide for a variety of wildlife. Each year differs as to what we plant, but this year we plant feed corn, sunflowers and legumes. Growing a variety of vegetation will attract a diverse population of wildlife.
This field of sunflowers and feed corn was planted to serve
as a food plot, available to wild game, birds and insects.
