Gotcha

That's really cool. I dont have that kind of patience and time at this stage in life. I'll probably stick with the C oaks for the time being when I plant oaks.

Im ignorant on the grafting thing, how does this work and what are the benefits? I guess I understand for fruit trees on the vigorous root-stock.

I would be in all day for that coming from no income from a cattle pasture. What is this program variation called? I have a 40 acre tract with about 20 mostly open acres I would love to do this on in the future.

I am currently getting $173/ acre on my CRP (MO is usually 20-30% less than IA depending on county). The guy at FSA said they usually pay around 2-3 of general crp contract. Though he did admit he has never enrolled a tree crp....

I may be getting ahead of myself, but I am very interested in putting 20-40 acres of my farm into CRP reforestation tree program when my current contract comes up in 2032. Do any of you have any experience with this? Obvious goal would be to increase cover on the farm while still having payment...

Very good success rate on cedars. Last year the 2-3' trees I transplanted 2 years ago (2nd growing season) grew 2' with the wet spring we had.

Resident harvest is flat due to decrease in accessibility to quality hunting experience for average guy. They would reduce if there wasnt a LA, MI, MN or SC license plate at every parking lot. I know MANY residents of mo have greatly reduced how much they hunt or quit altogether due to loss of...
