With a lot of fertilizer included. Our typical wheat program runs $280-$300 an acre.

4 bags of WMS would have been plenty, might have added 5 lbs. of clover. One bag of WMS covers an acre Not trying to be a dick but wms says 50 lbs per half acre for alabama blend

We put down a 30-80-80 at planting typically. Then come back with 2 trips of N during winter and early spring to a total of 125-130 units of N

50lb oats and rye each per acre. I experimented a few years and after planting oats wheat and rye close to each other it was obvious which they preferred.
I’ll hand throw what brassicas I have left from my august planting into everything.
I plant purple top, rape and radishes in mid august in other fields.
I got ladino plots also I maintain.
It’s food plots, not rocket science. Don’t over think it So what were your findings from the experiment? I’m guessing oats are preferred over everything else. Oats and rye were about equal. They rarely touched the wheat. Unless prices get extremely high on oats and rye I won’t plant wheat. They actually prefer the ladino even in the winter.

They'll tear up the oats. Sow it thick and hit it with N.

I need to say
If wheat is all I do plant in a field for some reason then they eat it
Didn’t want to sound like they won’t eat wheat.

I planted about two acres of ladino clover early this week. I put out 100lb of elbon rye with it, just to try it. Ill see what it looks like and might add something else later. I think i put 10lb of clover seed on the two acres. Its a T&M field so i really dont know what to expect yet. Ive got plenty of time to add to it if i need to. My primary goal is some feed this hunting season and ongoing feed from here on out. We will see. Also T&Med about two acres of yuchi arrowleaf. It was about head high when i bushhogged it.

Clover fixes N and without constant soil disturbance P and K applications aren’t needed at such high rates. Been 3 years now since I've added any P&K and two years since I used any N......
