I've talked many times on this Forum about how rocky my food plots are. But I don't think many realize just how rocky. As an example, see the picture below, and know this ground has already been tilled 6-8" deep, twice. Yet it still looks like that (one of my newly bulldozed plots).
So far, I have found no easy answer to working with these "soils," other than time. Growing anything that produces a lot of biomass and then mow it down. Keep doing that year after year, and eventually you have some actual soil to work with. The second picture is one of my older plots. I've been mowing and mowing and mowing biomass into that plot for about 15 years to get it to look like that.
