Question
What types of Eagle Soybeans do you like to plant?  I noticed they had a bunch of different flavors and I was wondering which type or types you were using on the Proving Ground and why?

Toxie,

I have planted all of the Eagle Seed forage soybean varieties and mixes.  In fact, I have the Game Keeper RR, Large Lad RR, and Big Fellow RR planted at The Proving Grounds now.  Game Keeper RR is a great mix that is good for covering all the bases.  Large Lad RR is very browse tolerant.  I like it for smaller plots where over browsing may be a concern.  Big Fellow RR is a bit more drought resistant.  I like it on the rocky ridge tops here at The Proving Grounds.

I simply try to match the variety’s and site’s characteristics to maximize the crops and the consumers (deer’s) potential.

Growing Deer together,
