Usually that is the least fertile land due to trees sucking the nutrients out of the dirt anyway. It's a win win as your crops are out of the way of the farmer and you'll still get an attractant/ food source for animals. And it wouldn't be a big expense for you or the farmer.


Durana clover is absolutely the best thing I have found for this. Every field I have planted it on, is has spread over into these area's, and I have tried to get other forage crops to grow there.
