4. Firminator G-3 ATV Unit
The original Firminator was a brilliant solution for land managers looking to maximize their time, energy and financial resources by incorporating all the necessary food plot implements into one unit. However, as the popularity of food plots continues to grow, so does the demand from an increasingly broader and more diverse group of hunters and land stewards. Great plot locations are often irregularly shaped and not easily accessible by heavy equipment. These sights may be well off the beaten path, down narrow trails, or on smaller ridges. These places are not easily accessible by heavy equipment and implements. The Firminator met all of these demands by scaling down existing technology to create the Firminator G-3 ATV model. It puts all the same features of their full-size G3 implement into a single unit sized just right for an ATV (500 cc or greater). The frame material consists of 3-inch square tubing, and the entire unit weighs 860 pounds. It has a 34×14.5×12-inch hopper, a two-bushel seed capacity, a 32-inch discing width, and a 34-inch cultipacker width. It utilizes the tow-behind method, and incorporates either a 1 7/8-inch ball or three-point hitch.

7. Chestnut Hill Dunstan Chestnuts
The American chestnut was once the most important food and timber tree in the Eastern American hardwood forests. Nutrient-dense chestnuts served as the primary mast source for a wide range of wildlife, including bears, turkeys, squirrels, hogs, and especially whitetails. In 1904, a fungal chestnut blight was accidentally imported from Asia. By 1950, the blight had decimated 30 million acres of chestnut forests, leaving a nutritional gap in the American hardwood ecosystem and dramatically altering the landscape. Today, the Dunstan Chestnut fills that gap. Bred by noted plant breeder Dr. Robert Dunstan, the Dunstan Chestnut has demonstrated 50 years of success throughout the United States. A result of cross-breeding American and Chinese varieties, the Dunstan produces the large, sweet nut of the American chestnut, and holds the blight-resistant qualities of the Chinese chestnut. Building on the foundations of Dr. Dunstan’s work, they continue to share knowledge and passion for living things by serving as a nationally-recognized leader in the introduction of new plant varieties that thrive in a range of habitats. Fortunately, the Dunstan Chestnut is the perfect food plot tree. This hardy species has a vast growing range that stretches from Florida to Wisconsin. Chestnuts bear nuts in three to five years, compared to 10-20 years for oaks, and can produce up to 2,000 pounds per acre at maturity. Chestnut also produces nuts annually, whereas oak only produces mast every other year. Serious about deer management? Plant Dunstan Chestnuts. Watch them flourish, produce mast, and draw deer.

8. Antler King Great 8
Read More : Early-Season Tips to Attract Deer
Known for premium food plot products, Antler King’s latest release is Great 8, which is a specially-designed blend that features eight key seed varieties. Forage peas grows fast and are loaded with protein. Tetraploid ryegrass offers quick growth and three times more sugar content than basic ryegrass, making it a great early bow season choice for deer. Cereal rye provides an all-season food source, and adds organic matter and nitrogen back into the soil for next fall’s plot. Buckwheat contains 13% protein and boosts fat and fiber within the diet. Turnips are great high-protein food sources during the rut, as these plants become more palatable after freezing temps trigger the rising glucose levels. Radishes stretch up to 24 inches tall, producing tons of forage. Forage rape helps combat overgrazing, and provides protein levels up to 30%, and supplies fiber levels up to 15%. Winter oats have high sugar content and tonnage for wintertime energy. Each of these mature at different times to ensure food sources are available to deer throughout the year. Plus, staggered maturity dates help provide constant attraction from opening to closing day. This blend is loaded with protein and carbohydrates, and it comes in an 8-pound bag that plants ¼ acre.

9. Antler King Small Town Throw Down
Antler King’s Small Town Throw Down is a mixture of five perennials and annuals. This multi-purpose food plot mix offers popular plant species for both the early and late season, but cool weather increases consumption. It offers unique varieties of buckwheat, canola, chicory, clover, kale, and rye. These species establish fast and grow quickly. Planted in the spring, summer or early fall, Small Town Throw Down matures in 50-90 days. While a 6.0-7.0 pH is preferred, it can grow in a wide variety of soil conditions and is a little more tolerant to soil acidity than many food plot mixes. Plant less than ¼-inch deep. Once established, expect multiple seasons of growth, as both the clover and chicory are perennial plant varieties. A 4-pound bag plants ¼ acre.
