Great pictures. How big is the food plot going to be? Do you have a blind already built?

Planting Bob oats, wheat and Clover (Lousiana S1) Ive got blinds on these fields from years past, but recently built some new ones. May not get them out until later in season. Planting total of about 10 - 15 acres.

Good pics! That is some nice looking equipment. That soil looks like it should produce about anything you sow on it. Ken Sweet

That's a lot of food plots! I'm working on mine as well but no where near that much, just a quarter acre here and a quarter acre there.

What does it do?

I really like how it makes the dirt look.

I read somewhere that a cultipacker both pushes the seed into the dirt while at the same time, making furrows to direct rain directly to the seed, or something like that. I was hunting over one of the food plots on Saturday and the deer seem to like it.

Small seeds only need good contact with the soil or a minimal covering a cultipacker does both. I use a harrow but one day will bite the bullet and get a cultipacker.
