We use an aggressive wire harrow behind an ATV. Works well to loosen up the top inch or so for planting small seed, clover, brassicas, rye. You do have to kill off and clear down to pretty bare ground however.
I've filled a couple of similar areas with a "corduroy road" made with cedar slabs I picked up from a guy that was sawing cedar logs. Worked really well and the slabs cost me $20 a pickup load.
I posted this recently in the food plot forum but getting few looks and no responses so I thought I'd try it here. I'd really like to try RR sugarbeets again but need help. I know a few years back Monsanto precluded food plotters from acquiring RR seed, and that may still be the case, but I...
I would really like to try planting sugarbeets again but haven't checked on their availability for a number of years. I know Monsanto made them unavailable to food plotters some years back and I suspect that has not changed but thought I'd inquire anyway. I would appreciate any advice you can...

Those prices are absolutely crazy!! Is there something very special about a 7600? I've got the fore runner to the 7600 in a 760 in 30-06. I'm thinking it might be worth a couple of hundred at best.
