We are going to get a local farmer to disc up and level our soil really well to help prepare the soil for the first time and then have him come in with a grain drill a couple weeks later. So far, we are thinking of doing a mixture for the first year to see what does well (oats, wheat, rye, white/yellow sweet clovers). I'm also thinking about buying the fall turner seed mix since it has so many different types of forage. I would like to add something that will grow through the next spring and into the summer of at all possible. What are yalls thoughts on throwing out some native perennial seeds (bush sunflower and engelmann Daisy) with the fall food plot? Also, what other perennial seed would you add to a fall food plot in Menard County (West Texas)? Would you add chicory or is there a certain clover that's good for our area (low rainfall)? Thanks again for all of your help,
