Wildlife Habitat Production Recommendations


PLOT SIZE and LOCATION: Food and cover plots are most effective when they are over two acres in size. Locating plots within a short distance of water and shelterbelts or bushes will increase the time that game will spend in the cover plot.

FIELD SELECTION: Select land with low trash/residue from prior crop and low weed pressure. Warm and well-drained areas with lighter soils will speed spring emergence. Avoid aline areas and check chemical histories for restrictions to growing corn.

SEEDBED PREPARATIONExposing the topsoil will speed soil temperature warm-up and enhance emergence. When zero tillage is used it is recommended to use high distur¬bance openers.

FERTILITYRECOMMENDED RATES OF ACTUAL PRODUCT

PLANTINGSoil temperature should be over 50 F (10 C)
Plant between May 5 to May 30 for optimum growth
Seeding depth: 1 1/4 to 1 3/4 inches
Planting rate (Grazing): 70,000 plants / acre50 lb bag = 1.65 acres
Planting rate (Food Plots): 50,000 plant/acre50 lb bag = 2.3 acres
8 - 15” row spacing is optimal (block every second run on press drills with narrower spacing) Packing soil ensures seed to soil contact
Reduce speed below 5 mph to increase precision of seeding depth


WEED CONTROL: Early season weed control is essential
Post-seeding burn off helps reduce early problems. Make sure this is done with¬in a few days of planting to avoid seed damage

There is a wide selection of herbicides designed for field corn that can be used on CanaMaize. Short season corn may be more susceptible to herbicide damage. Herbicide recommendations and tank mixes in USA may need to be reduced from levels on label recommendations created for longer season corn. For herbicides and the recommended rates for CanaMaize consult your Legend Seeds CanaMaize crop advisor or contact the office for our flyer on chemical recommendations.
