Grab your pen and paper for this podcast! After many months of debating this podcast topic, we release the truths behind the knowledge that will take you deeper in the understanding of your property. The foundation of habitat management is a detailed knowledge of the resources that comprise habitat offered on the property. This foundation is simply, what vegetation is growing?
Without being able to identify what plant species are growing it is impossible to make sound or qualified land management decisions. It would be irresponsible for someone to either apply herbicide or cut trees down without knowing what they are spraying or even what they are sinking a chainsaw into. During the podcast, we stress the importance of repetition and intentional learning of the plant species growing on your property. This doesn't happen without practice. In addition, we leave you with 20 very common plant species that deer strongly relate to in four different categories, trees, shrubs, forbs, and grass. If you can learn these 20 species you can learn 200 more. But this requires you to start!
Learning the native flora in your region is a skill. This skill makes you powerful in the land management game. Begin using helpful apps such as iNaturalist to sharpen your skills! Be diligent and learn these species so you can learn how to improve as a land manager and hunter. #ForLoveoftheLand
