Northern Edge Forage Radishes is an easy to establish annual forage for wildlife food plots that produces a tremendous amount of high protein forage and large edible roots for deer from late summer through mid to late winter. As with other brassicas, Northern Edge Forage Radishes will see increased feeding activity as cooler weather arrives in the fall due to increased sugars in the leaves and roots. These radishes are also efficient recyclers of minerals and other nutrients which benefit antler growth and overall health of the deer herd. Other benefits of Northern Edge Forage Radishes include enhanced soil tilth, increased soil organic matter, weed suppression, improved water infiltration and aeration. When the radishes start to decay in late winter, nutrients become readily available for use by the following food plot crop. Eco-Till Radish is a new Daikon type forage radish variety specifically developed for fall/winter cover crop applications. These radishes offer impressive benefits to the soil and the environment including the reduction of soil compaction, improved nutrient recycling, increased organic matter, enhancement of soil tilth and suppresion of weeds, to name a few. A superior, deep penetrating taproot is one characteristic that seperates Eco-till radishes from the competition. The thin, lower portion of the taproot can grow to a depth of six feet or more while the thick upper portion of the taproot can grow to a length of 24 inches. This taproot creates vertical holes in the soil profile that breaks up soil compaction and improves soil tilth. This process, known as “bio-building”, improves water infiltration, aeration and fertilizer efficiency for succeeding crops. Equally important is the ability of these radishes to take up nutrients from the soil profile to be stored in the tissues near the soil surface and make them readily available for use by the following crop.

2.5 LB Covers Approximately 11,000 Sq Ft. (1/4 Acre) Northern Edge Forage Collards are a hybrid brassica selected for superior forage quality, high forage/biomass production, grazing and winter survival. When tested for forage quality against other premium brassicas, Northern Edge Forage Collards places near the top in all desirable characteristics including crude protein and digestibility.
Northern Edge Forage Collards can thrive under a wide range of environmental conditions and seasonal extremes including below zero for several days without snow cover or protection, making it one of the most winter-hardy brassicas available. Leaves may wilt or burn around the edges but vegetation will remain green and viable throughout the winter. On the other extreme, once Northern Edge Forage Collards large tap root penetrates deep into the soil profile, it can still be productive during hot, dry summers experience in many areas of the country.
Northern Edge Forage Collards can tolerate close grazing pressure due to the growing point near the soil surface which allows for fast regrowth after grazing. The versatility and economic benefits of Northern Edge Forage Collards are unsurpassed, making it truly the king of premium brassicas.
Beets & Greens features annual seed varieties that are designed to work together to attract and hold deer throughout the fall and winter.
These include the Whitetail Institute’s proprietary kale, turnip and radish varieties, as well as the sweet attractiveness of sugar beets. These components are included in Beets & Greens in ratios that Whitetail Institute testing has proven will provide abundant, highly attractive tonnage from early fall through late winter, as well as tubers to help deer through the harsh winter months. Designed for planting in the fall, Beets & Greens establishes and grows quickly.
