I am working on my seed order and I am looking into expanding screens. My intent is to install MG screens over time, but I am interested in creating annual screens in the meantime. What do you all use? Seed, varieties, mix rates.... How wide do they need to be to be effective? I have a low deer density with lots of ag around so I doubt I see significant deer browsing (I can plant 1/4 acre ag soybean plots and leave them unprotected and they still produce pods). These screens are simply to screen my access and to break up plots. I am currently looking at maybe some pearl millet, sorghum(s) and sunflower(s). I have looked at the commercial mixes and just like their fancy food plot seed, seem to be way over priced.
