Clover field killed last night.


Recommended Posts

So my Farmer sent in a big tractor and sprayed two fields with round up. Clover was't doing well. My question is will the deer know not to eat the clover? They have been pounding it every night. Just a thought for you guys. Also be interesting to see how the action is just inside the woods where we have a camera.

Yup. They will know. And you will need to follow them to their next choice.

Deer have large livers.  Seems odd he sprayed it this late in the year. Years ago, farmers used red clover for green manure plow down and never sprayed it.  They got away from that and started using oats because of clover seed prices.

I sometimes question these new fangled farming ways.
