Description

Welcome to the land podcast, a platform for people looking to educate themselves in the world of land ownership, land investing, staying up to date with current land trends in the Midwest, and hearing from industry experts and professionals.


On today's episode, we are back in the studio with Skip Sligh, rehashing a live event we did over on the whitetail master academy. We discuss:


  • Skip shares insights on ideal land ratios for whitetail habitat

  • A mix of 60-70% timber and 30-40% tillable land is preferred

  • Deer can inhabit newly planted areas in 4-5 years with proper care

  • The importance of diverse food sources for deer is emphasized

  • A 40-acre timber block can provide everything deer need

  • Mowing clover can promote growth, but timing is crucial

  • Use herbicides wisely to manage weeds in clover plots

  • A solid burn-down cocktail for corn includes Gly and 2 4-D

  • Acuron is recommended for corn pre-emergent herbicide

  • Investing in habitat improvements increases farm value significantly

    • And so much more!
