I am a farmer and last year bought a Great Plains no-till drill to plant my soybeans. I was also looking forward to using it for food plots. I drilled a couple of plots with RR soybeans and at the last minute threw in a little seed corn, thinking if some of it grew it would give the deer a little overhead cover and me a little "sneaking " cover as well. I was surprised at how well the corn grew and produced ears. I thought the drill would plant the corn too shallow to produce much of a crop. Now I'm thinking I want to crank up the pop. of the corn and try to make a soy-corn plot every year. My goal is to get enough N out of the soys every year to make a respectable corn crop also. I also planted some PF and DNR food plots in milo sorghum corn sunflower combinations and it all grew when planted at the same depth. Was I just lucky or do you think all this seed planted at the same depth will always turn out OK?
