I'm feeding about 5 tons month here in La.

Originally posted by elgato View PostAs you know this should be the year you start to see some benefits and the curve increases sharply for the next few years as you have a group of cohorts that have been on protein their whole life maturing. We have been feeding in Mexico for 22 years and still see general improvements.

5 metric tons (2200 lbs per ton, so 11,000 lbs) of protein a month. From January to now, we have fed 35 metric tons to date, not including cotton seed (another 10 tons or so of seed). Fixing to put out cameras, so we will see what kind condition our deer are in. We are dealing with a Bit of a drought at our place, so I anticipate the protein hogs to pop this year, the reclusive deer to be down, and the overall herd to be a bit down, but time will tell.
