'April 20, 2015 │ On this episode of Cabela\'s Wildlife and Land Management (WLM) TV, join Midwest and Northeast Regional Wildlife Biologist, Jeremy Flinn, as he discusses the advantages and disadvantage of planting perennial food plots in the spring versus fall. Planting in the spring provides critical nutrition to growing whitetail fawns and turkey poults. It also give the slower growing perennial species like white clover, chicory, and alfalfa time to establish a great looking food plot before hunting season. Jeremy will use the Cabela\'s LM 43 (http://www.cabelas.com/product/1677878.uts) compact tractor with the Cabela\'s by Woods Rotary Tiller (http://www.cabelas.com/product/1672623.uts) in order to get a fine seedbed for the smaller food plot seed. Once the seedbed is properly tilled, Jeremy will plant the white clover food plot seed using the Cabela\'s by Woods Precision Seeder (http://www.cabelas.com/product/1677724.uts) pulled behind the larger compact tractor, the Cabela\'s LM50H Cab model (http://www.cabelas.com/product/1672772.uts). The finished product will provide quality nutrition, plus deer and turkey hunting on the farm. Senior Wildlife Biologist, Rans Thomas, will also show us how to truly measure the success of any food plot by installing browse exclosures, or food plot cages. Rans will construct a simple cage to allow wildlife and land managers the ability to determine if the food plot was truly a success or failure, and then if the cause was deer overbrowsing or some other factor like drought or soil conditions. This tool is truly the easiest and cost-effective way to determine the true growing success of any food plot, regardless of region.'
