[QUOTE="DoubleRidge, post: 5519009, member: 20594"] First of all Congratulations!! That's awesome that you were able to increase your acreage....I agree with Megas plan...I especially love the idea of creating multiple thick areas that are designated as refuge or sanctuary area's...give deer quiet places to go where they are never pressured....and if your budget allows you to plant the 5 acres great....but another option is to keep a portion of the field in early successional natural growth.....then plant a portion of the field rotating in your warm and cool season plots...think variety and diversity....and if you have closed canopy forest areas thin those areas and allow sunlight to the forest floor and you may be able generate some timber income to apply to the other projects.....from the way you have described the property and surrounding area it sounds like you have a great opportunity....enjoy the process...it takes time to transform a property and there will always be projects to work on but habitat work is so rewarding when you see wildlife respond.....keep us posted on your journey! Congrats again! [/QUOTE]
