Bishops Seed Wildlife Forage Feed Plots
Our Coe Hill Experimental Plots
Untilled, unfertilized area to be worked next year.
Field that was tilled, fertilized, limed and seeded.
Note we did not use chemicals to remove the fern growth
It has been our experience that the ferns gave a small amount of
protection to tender plants without stunting their growth
Note that this area has already been browsed by deer.
Deer appear to select certain varieties during various periods in a season.
This area has only lightly been browsed for clover. There are
three different types of clover displayed here.
The plant front and center is millet.
As one moves aside ferns tasty kale, turnips, clover and millet growth are quite dense.
Deer generally browse and dig the turnip last even while some
snow has fallen.
And you thought the turnips above were big!!!
These are edible by humans and deer alike. Mild in flavor they are unlike
the strongly flavored store bought turnips!
