How To Create Critical Deer and Wildlife Edge

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Great habitat edge is critical for wildlife! However, creating the perfect edge for whitetails and wildlife populations takes a lot more than hinge cutting and cutting some trees down. This is how to truly create the perfect edge for all kinds of wildlife!

    Thanks for info Jeff! I plants some sorghum this last year and liked how birds and deer used it and I figure turkey Poults can move in our for cover to. Hope to add it to field edges this year to give a little more diversity. Funny how the one plot looks like snowman from the air. Thanks again!

    Awesome subject Jeff. Applies completely to my property. I have a 1/2 mile hard edge ravine that splits ag land. UTV and farm vehicles ride this edge continuously spooking the deer. I think a 10 yard buffer of shrubs and switchgrass would really help quite down the ravine. Thanks.

    Late season bowhunting here in missouri I had 50-60 turkey daily on my property. That’s a good sign for deer I guess. No to mention this spring turkey season

    Great info. What is amazing to me is a tornado came thru the area where I hunt. Which is mainly big timber. And it blew trees down all over. They are in patches that are spread over miles of land. It looks like heck. But it also did almost everything you recommend naturally. And as you mentioned there already was a nice mixture of wildlife. But now there is even more. 😄😄

    In the last 30 years or so around here I haven't seen too much eradication of fencerows (much of that happened earlier) but the last 10-20 years our gamebird populations have tanked. I believe the biggest factor in our area is the collapse of the fur market along with the significant rise in bobcat population. The cats along with all of the nest raiders are taking a heavy toll. Definitely agree with your content here about the importance of edge habitat and diversity.

    That is a tough one! Most of those stand soak up so much water. In dry years you can kill and attempt to replace with shrubs that like to get their feet wet...willows, dogwood, alder. But it may be a labor of love depending on if you get too much rain or not

    Hi Jeff, if you have weed controlled agriculture along the edge of a woods, would there be quicker regeneration if I lightly worked that soil? I would do switch grass out further and then go inside the edge of the woods to do some hinge cuts and stump cuts

  • @jonm3088
    @jonm30886 ай бұрын

    Jeff, is there something you'd plant in your kill plots that rabbits would mostly ignore but the deer would like in Oct/Nov? I've got really great rabbit habitat adjacent to my food plots and there are a ton of them judging by the tracks in the snow. Would clover/brassica and with cereal rye filler be okay still?
