Many folks are looking for ways to incorporate wildlife into their traditional livestock operations, especially in east Texas where many places have introduced grasses, such as bermuda, that have little wildlife value. By implementing food plots on your property, landowners can provide a highly nutritious food source for white-tailed deer and other wildlife species. Food plots do not need to take up large areas, and we only recommend putting food plots on 1-3% of the total acreage.
We have developed two short videos that you can view below describing the basics that any landowner should know about food plots before implementing them on their land. For additional information, read
Wildlife Forage Areas for White-Tailed Deer and
Supplemental Forage Management for East Texas White-Tailed Deer.
