Egyptian wheat is a member of the sorghum family and is excellent for quail. Bears large seed heads. Seeds will be ready for game 110 days after emergence. Plant after danger of frost at one inch deep. Use 10 lbs. per acre. Buy 10 lbs. for $15.50 and 50 lbs. for $56.95

Description
Egyptian wheat produces long, slender stalks that reach 7 to 10 feet in height. The loose seed heads are borne on light, drooping stems clustered at the top of the plants. The rounded, slightly flattened seeds are smaller than most other grain sorghum seeds and are enclosed by light husks. Egyptian wheat matures at 120 to 140 days.


Value To Quail
Several characteristics of Egyptian wheat make it ideally suited as a food and cover plant for quail. Unlike other grain sorghums, Egyptian wheat is not prone to damage by flocks of blackbirds. Its spindly seed heads prevent blackbirds and other relatively large birds from perching on the upper stems to eat the seeds.

Egyptian wheat mature s late, and its seeds last into late winter, when native foods of quail are scarce. Quail will begin using Egyptian wheat seeds as soon as they mature, but quail probably benefit most from these seeds during late fall and winter.

The tall growth structure of the plants provides protective cover where quail can feed while remaining safe from detection or successful attack by predators. Its growth form also provides good cover for young quail.

Deer damage to t he plant is usually not a problem. Although deer will eat Egyptian wheat seed heads, use by deer is not excessive, except in years of poor acorn production

Establishment
Plot Selection. Egyptian wheat grows best on fertile, well-drained sites receiving full or lightly filtered sunlight. It is suited to all regions of Alabama, but it grows poorly in deep, excessively drained, sandy soils.

Plots should be located in or near good quail cover. Good locations include fields, field edges, utility right-of-ways, and forest openings.

Plot Size. Well-managed plots of 1/10 to 1/4 acre are large enough to supplement native foods of quail. Long, relatively narrow plots are preferable to other shapes. Plots should be at least 15 feet, but not more than 25 feet, in width for efficient bird dog work and hunting.

Soil Preparation. Thoroughly disk the plots well before planting. Harrow plots no later than late April to avoid destroying quail nests.

Planting Dates. Plant Egyptian wheat after all danger of frost has past, but before June 1. The best dates for planting Egyptian wheat in Alabama are from April 15 to May 15.

Planting Methods. Egyptian wheat seed should be planted in rows spaced 3 feet apart. Broadcast planting is usually unsatisfactory. Plant 4 to 6 pounds of seed per acre. The best production generally occurs at lower rates (4 pounds per acre). The ideal spacing for the plants leaves about 3 to 4 inches between adjacent plants in the row.

Fertilizing. Fertilize plots according to soil-test recommendations. If the soil is not tested, apply about 400 pounds of 5-10-10 or its equivalent per acre.

Side-dressing is necessary for good seed production. Side-dress with 75 to 100 pounds of ammonium nitrate per acre when plants reach 15 to 25 inches in height. If weed control by cultivation is needed, side-dress during the last cultivation.


Maintenance
Although some seeds from the last growing season may sprout and produce seeds the following year, Egyptian wheat plots should be replanted each year. The same plots may be planted in successive years, but repeated plantings usually require cultivation for weed control.

For quail-management purposes, it is best to establish new plantings adjacent to or near earlier plantings. Seed-producing grasses and weeds will volunteer in idle plantings. This native vegetation will provide additional, varied food sources for quail. By planting original plots on a 3-to-5 year rotation, the abundance and diversity of quail food can be maximized.

cattail millet
n : tall grass having cattail like spikes; grown in Africa and
Asia for its grain and in the United States chiefly for
forage; sometimes used in making beer [syn: pearl millet,
bulrush millet, Pennisetum glaucum, Pennisetum Americanum]

Marshes are areas of standing water that sustain water-loving plants such as cattail , sedge, arrowhead, bulrush and native grasses. There are no trees in a Marsh. Sedge meadows, wet meadows, prairie pot holes and shallow wetlands are kinds of marshes.

Cattail provedes food and shelter for many animals.

If you have land that is too wet in spring and too wet to harvest if fall this is your plant.

Pearl (Cattail)

Cattail MILLET
Pearl Millet is grown as a food grain and its stalks used for fodder. Grows exceptionally wall, even on poor dry infertile soils from 5 to 6 feet tall and produces a s@ head from 6 to 1 6 inches long, Good feed and cover for all upland game birds, waterfowl, deer, etc.




Grows 6 to 8 feet tall and matures in 3 months.


Late spring to early summer


Well-drained soil with a pH level of

5.5-6.6


Drill seed at 15 lbs./acre or broadcast at 20-25 lbs./acre

Soils

Pearl millet, like most crops, thrives best on rich soils, but it is also suited for sandy soils. It tends to produce higher tonnage than the foxtail millets or sudangrass on sandy soils. The crop tolerates poor, infertile soils better than most other crops.



Stand Establishment

Planting into a firm, mellow, moist seedbed is an important step in successful pearl millet production. Pearl millet seed is small, so shallow planting 1/2 to 1 inch deep into firm seedbed to obtain good seed-to-soil contact is critical. Field trials have shown that when a firm seedbed is lacking, poor emergence is common and stand failures occur.

Plant into a weed-free seedbed after all danger of frost is past. A soil temperature of 65 to 70 degrees Fahrenheit is recommended for faster germination and stand establishment. Pearl millet can be planted throughout the growing season if moisture is present for germination. Plant no earlier than late May, with early to mid June recommended. Planting date may depend on whether intended use is hay, silage or pasture. Normally, pearl millet can be grazed four to six weeks after planting.

Plant 15 to 20 pounds of seed per acres if solid seeding or broadcasting pearl millet. Seed 7 to 10 pounds per acre if planting in 30 to 42 inch rows. Heavier seeding rates should produce finer stems.

Plant in no more than 2 inches of water. Sunlight must hit seeds to germinate

A Report on Growing Rice for Ducks in North Georgia

Cypress Rice Seed

By: Kent Kammermeyer
Senior Wildlife Biologist

Last summer I was given a bag of domestic rice by William Cooper of Cooper Seed Company in Lawrenceville to test for its growth potential in North Georgia. I have a four-acre pond with a flashboard riser stacked with 6 inch boards. In early July, at full pool, we loaded up the seed and cyclone seeder in my 12 foot semi-V aluminum boat and broadcast the 50 pounds of rice in as shallow water as we could run the boat with electric motor and out to depths of about 1 � feet deep. Then over the course of the next week, I gradually dropped my pond about a foot exposing a half acre of mud and creating another half acre of water less than 6 inches deep. The rice is supposed to germinate in up to 6 inches of clear water and it did. I got a very good stand on the mud flat and in the shallow water. My intention was to raise the water back up to full pool to flood the mud flat again, but I could not do it because of the drought. Nevertheless, the dryland rice did fairly well. In August, when it was thigh high or higher and trying to send up a seed head, I noticed a few stalks floating on the water, then a few more, then a lot. Within a two week period beavers and/or muskrats had cut all the stems at ground level, apparently ate a little of the stem and the rest floated away! What a disappointment! Despite the failure, I'm convinced you can successfully grow domestic rice for ducks in North Georgia if you don't have beavers or muskrats or you can practice beaver and muskrat control (usually trapping or shooting). If you have the critters and can't get rid of them, you may want to stick with the old standby Japanese millet.

Food plots and forage soybeans

Sep 28, 2001 12:00 PM

By David Bennett Farm Press Editorial Staff

SENATOBIA, Miss. A few days ago, a man who walked into this field may have thought he'd stumbled into a fairytale land of giants. Tyrone soybean plants were so high that seeing the hardwoods ringing the field even from a pick-up cab was impossible. The bushy variety, which can grow from 5 feet to 7 feet tall depending on the soil variety it's planted in, blotted out the horizon. Then 2.5 inches of rain hit quickly, pounding the giant soybean plants into a matted (although still 3-foot-tall) lush, pod-heavy carpet.

These are the giant soybeans you have been looking for to feed your deer.

Deer eat them and they keep coming back.

More drought resistant.

Chufa is the absolute favorite food of turkeys and Spanish Chufa are-

* Far Superior To Domestic Chufa
* Attracts & Holds More Turkeys
* Bigger Nuts / Greater Production
* Turkeys Spend Hours Digging the Nuts

Application Instructions

* Select a sunny site
* plow/disk soil well to create a clean, weed-free seedbed
* Chufa grows best in sandy soils but will perform well even in hard clay soils
* fertilize with a balanced mixture such as 10-10-10 Slow Release Fertilizer Complete With Pellet Lime And Trace Elements at 250 pounds/acre. Liming is recommended if ph is below 5.8. Consult your County Extension Agent for additional information.
* Chufa can be planted via broadcast, grain-drill or row-crop planter at a rate of 18-20 lbs. per half-acre. Because chufa seeds are so large, they can be planted 2 or more inches deep. When broadcasting, cover seeds by either lightly disking or dragging. In the fall, after the plants have matured and died back, it is helpful to disk up some short strips in the plot to get the turkeys started on exposed chufas. Generally, chufa should be considered an annual, but plots can be regenerated to varying degrees by disking and re-fertilizing in the spring.
