  • Ideal Northern Edge Brassica Mix has been designed to provide highly nutritious forage from late-summer until well after killing frosts. This ability to stockpile feed helps whitetail deer survive the harsh winter months until spring growth appears.

    Deer feeding activity on this mix usually increases significantly after cool weather arrives in the fall and will continue throughout the winter unless snow cover is too deep.

    The five brassicas that comprise this mix were chosen for their different maturities, high protein, palatability and the ability to adapt to a wide range of environmental and soil conditions.

    HIGHLIGHTS

    • Easy to plant in spring or fall
    • Long Lasting
    • Attracts rapidly
    • Attracts deer and other wildlife

    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.

  • Northern Edge Habitat Heaven has been designed to attract and hold game birds and other wildlife in the area and provide excellent cover for the entire season. This mix has also been known to be used by whitetail as an essential bedding area. This mixture of native grasses will provide shelter as well as offer escape routes from predators

    The first Step in establishing a successful food plot is to have a soil test taken of the area to be planted. The soil test will indicate any adjustments needed in regards to pH and provide recommended fertilizer requirements. Without a soil test we recommend 300 pounds of 12-12-12 and 500 to 2,000 pounds of lime per acre.
