The Importance of Quality Wildlife Seed Supply

Quality wildlife seed mix is not just beneficial but essential for the health and proliferation of local wildlife populations. Our wildlife food plot seeds are meticulously selected by scientific research to provide nutrition, soil building and wildlife cover.  Forage Tech has a proprietary summer seed mix and a winter seed mix for deer.  In addition, Forage Tech sells perennial clover seed, perennial alfalfa seed and combinations of alfalfa and clover, utilizing the best perennial seeds possible.  Forage Tech also sells Eagle Forage Soybeans, high quality corn with varying maturing dates for dove or deer, native warm season grass seed, chufa seed for turkeys, buckwheat seed for soil building, teosinte seed for property screening as well as food for quail, turkey and ducks and seed for your dove field plantings and duck plantings.  The picture to the left is a picture of the winter seed mix growing on our demonstration farm in Middle Tennessee after spring green up.  

Deep Dive into Forage Tech’s Deer Nutrition Solutions

When it comes to food plot fertilizers and minerals in Tennessee, we understand the importance of maximizing the potential of your land for optimal trophy deer production and improving the general health of your deer herd.  Almost all commercial fertilizers contain three primary nutrients represented by the numbers on the bag such as 15-15-15.  That means the fertilizer has three nutrients in the bag.  There are six major nutrients and key minor nutrients important for the health of your deer herd.  Our fertilizer contains all 6 major nutrients and several key micronutrients.  The granular minerals replace salt blocks with a much broader assortment of nutrients than what can be provided by any hard block.  We furnish the best bag lime available which is certified organic and contains both calcium and magnesium.  Forage Tech also furnishes fish pond fertilizer.  We work with a quality lab for soil testing and our staff agronomist prepares a food plot from the soil test for our customers.   For those who want to understand deer nutrition more fully, please click on the attached PDF written by our staff Agronomist and Wildlife Biologist.

Forage Tech’s Unique Approach to Wildlife Trees for Your Property

Forage Tech offers a wide range of trees specifically selected for wildlife management and home orchards for the Mid-South and Mid-West, concentrating on USDA Hardiness Zones 4-8.   Among our offerings are Chestnut Trees, American Hybrid Chestnut Trees and Allegheny Chinquapin Trees with each of these trees providing four times the protein and four times the carbs of the best White Oak acorns.  We also provide Wildlife Fruit Trees including Apple Trees, Crabapple Trees, Tigertooth Jujube Trees, Pear Trees, Green Giant Screening Tree and Persimmon Trees. Besides Chestnut Trees, we provide additional nut producing trees including Tennessee Sweet Pecans, Gobbler Sawtooth Oak Trees and Dwarf Chinkapin Oak Trees that produce abundant nuts perfect for attracting deer, turkey and other wildlife.  Most big box stores and volume sellers sell fruit trees grafted on inexpensive rootstock.  Forage Tech goes to a huge effort to graft fruit trees to the best roostocks available. We specialize in selling fruit and nut trees from 5′-10′ tall so that they will bear fruit and nuts more quickly than seedlings and provide the best value possible.  Whether you are looking to enhance your hunting land or create a wildlife sanctuary or home orchard, our selection of trees is sure to meet your needs.  January to the first week of March is the time to plant Wildlife Fruit Trees.  Forage Tech has a good selection in stock.  Email or text us to discuss your tree needs.

Forage Tech History: A Journey of Innovation and Expertise

Forage Tech’s journey began 22 years ago when our agronomist/wildlife biologist founder purchased hunting land. His test plots and seed mix trials led to innovations like the “Bag in a Bag” system, separating large and small seeds for optimal planting. This approach, coupled with recommendations for cover crops and holistic fertilizer development, culminates in our comprehensive product line, including seed mixes, fertilizers, mineral mixes, specialized and quality driven fruit and nut trees as well as small equipment suitable for planting and maintaining fruit trees, wildlife food plots including clover plots and other tasks for those involved in wildlife agriculture.  

Our Commitment to Quality and Environmental Stewardship

Proud of our journey and expertise, Forage Tech invites you to experience the difference in quality, innovation, and commitment to wildlife and the environment.
