I am horrible at identifying trees so I need to find out what these 2 are and if they are worth saving. I purchased this land last year and did not get a chance to make any food plots on it and planning some plots now. These are on a 2 acres food plot. There are a bunch of both of these on the plot and in the woods surrounding the plot. I do not want to have to work around these if they are not good for anything. The first pic is what I think is a wild persimmon, if I am correct will they make persimmons and will deer eat them? The 2nd pic is some type of oak, if correct will it make acorns and be worth saving? Again I have a lot of these in the food plot to work around bush hogging and disking so if not good trees I will take them out. [img:left] [/img] [img:left] [/img]

Persimmon on top? Red Oak with cogon grass on the bottom?

If I'm not mistaken, a persimmon is like some other fruit trees. For lack of the actual scientific terms, some trees are basically female, producing fruit, and some are male trees that never produce fruit. I think fruit growers have learned to make male trees start producing fruit by grafting branches from a female tree. I am not pretending to know much about this, just read a little on it. You may have to watch this tree a few years to determine if it's fruit bearing or not.

Ok so are they worth keeping? For hunting over, highly doubtful.

I wouldn't try to work around them. The bigger they get, the more they will shade out your plot. Especially since you have others growing in the woods, I'd push them up.

A topped persimmon tree won't take up much room, but that oak would go.
