If my CPR offer is approved, I will be required to plant a 0.4 acre food plot in the CPR field. I have a Kobota B2710 tractor. What implements will I need for the job? Crops allowed include corn, sorghum, millets, buckwheat, or a mix available from the DNR. Plot will be approx 100' x 200'. USDA instructions say, "drill or plant into firm seedbed or broadcast over established seed bed with light discing/cultipacking." I sharecrop with a local farmer that no-till plants my 40 acre field. It is too difficult to get his big equipment into the CRP field, so asking him to plant the food plot is not an option. I assume for planting a small food plot that the implements needed for ground preparation and broadcasting the seed is cheaper than drill/planter. I am leaning to the corn or sorghum or mix to attract the most species of wildlife. What is the best way to plant and what implements will I need that will fit my B2710? I appreciate any input.
