I have access to 40 acres of private land that I hunt. I would like to setup some sort of food plot this year, instead of just filling up deer feeders with corn. Is there an online source for a good book for the reading so I can kind of understand what goes into planting a food plot? It won't be a big plot, maybe 150ft x 400~ft. Another pointer is that I will have to haul tools by ATV because where I want to put the food plot is on the back of the property and is only accessible by foot or ATV.
thanks f909

Go to Whitetail Institute's website. They have an offer that includes several types of seed, and instructional food plot DVD, and a subscription to a really informative magazine that they publish. You just pay the $8.95 for shipping and handling. I've had really good luck with their products. I hope it helps....Good luck.
