I noticed Eagle Seed released a few new varieties of soy beans and while reading about them I saw that one particular trait (that is Enlist, Gly, and Liberty compatible) requires a Bayer License in order to purchase.
Is a Bayer License something that a food plotter can obtain?
What kind of trees do you folks plant for habitat and for browse/food in northern climates?
Around Bemidji- USDA zone 3 according to most maps.
Oaks grow and apples too but I’m curious as to other trees you have had good success with.
Trap
I have had the same luck as you with the screen but mine was in a much drier environment. Some of it grew and the stand was very thin.
As this happened to me last year- I planted 2 different ways in the same area just to make sure I wasn’t messing that part up. 27-0-24 at planting, 46-0-0...
Bemidji here- after our recent pipeline projects there were quite a few miles that had oats for a cover crop too!
I enjoy the fact that you stopped along 200 and took a pic!
For what it’s worth- I was re-calibrating my sprayer tonight. A fimco 25 gallon boomless ATV sprayer.
I captured the output for each nozzle separately over a period of 60 seconds at full psi. (While all 3 were spraying)
I then weighed the total water that was captured and wound up with...
If you can’t spray -fertilize, disc, plant wheat (oats frost out early here in Mn) and then drag or very lightly disc. I’m in Bemidji and the week before Labor Day is dependable here for wheat/rye.
Call it a season.
If it’s actual rye grass.
The Imox label specifies 16-32 oz per acre.
I figure 13 ish gallons of water per acre through my backpack sprayer.
If you were to go 32oz per acre using 13 gallons that would give you 2.46 oz/gallon.
Someone can check my math if needed or chime in on water rates...
