After planting Feeding Frenzy, the oats will germinate first and quickly grow, luring deer from surrounding areas to your food plot. The other ingredients will germinate and begin to mature soon after. The time tested sweet winter peas will provide a highly desirable forage which will continue to attract deer to your hunting area. As winter sets in, the carbohydrates in the brassicas are converted to sugars, making the plants highly palatable and promoting energy and nutrition during the coldest months following the rut. The clovers will grow through the winter into spring even after the hunting season is over providing high quality nutrition for post rut bucks and pregnant does. Every seed is treated with GermMax to maximize germination rates and get your plants off to a strong and healthy start. 25#     $29.95

.Durana Wildlife Seed      Uses: Rackmaster® Durana White Clover is the newest white clover on the market for whitetail deer management. Durana was developed by Dr. Joe Bouton, while at the University of Georgia, to persist under grazing pressure, tolerate acidic soils, compete aggressively with weeds and grasses and to tolerate low management situations. Durana, unlike ladino clover, is an intermediate white clover. Intermediate clovers have a medium leaf size and a leaf density that is very thick, from the ground to the top of the plant. This leaf density will help prevent weed invasion. Durana possesses a high stolon density; it has 97 stolons per square foot, unlike conventional ladino clovers which only have 52 per square foot. It is pre-inoculated and lime coated for easy seeding and optimal nitrogen fixation. Durana will outlast conventional ladino clovers in food plots and persist for years on good moisture holding soils. With protein levels of over 25% and digestibility of over 75%, Durana will make an excellent pure stand or combination planting for any food plot to feed, attract and hold game on your property. Durana is persistent, productive and a highly preferred white clover.  Planting    Date: Sept. - Oct. and Feb. - April Rate: 8 lbs./acre or ¼ lb./1000 sq.ft.

    BUCK FORAGE OATS     per 50#

If attracting deer during hunting season is your goal, then Buck Forage Oats have no peer. But don't take our word, we suggest strip planting next to any clover, blend, turnips, rape, or any other super blend. Then, observe during hunting season for actual utilization. You'll discover how Buck Forage earned it's name. Buck Forage are more winter hardy than most others and tend to grow slower than other oats in the fall. Smaller means more tender and palatable.  As small grains get larger they tend to become tough and the protein content decreases. Buck Forage Oats are for the whitetail deer manager or hunter concerned with not only providing an unbeatable attractant, but also providing excellent forage. Seeding Rate: Broadcast approximately 120 lb./acre, Drill approximately 100 lb./acre   Plant in a well prepared and well drained seed bed. Cover seed 1" to 2" deep.  Fertilize and lime according to your local extension service recommendations  BUCK FORAGE oats are very cold tolerant, but no oat is freeze proof or drought proof. Planting done in constant below freezing areas or desert climates will normally result in loss of crop. Freeze-out frequently occurs when warm late fall or winter growing conditions are followed by sudden extreme temperature
