Three calculators built for Midwest deer hunters โ seed rates, lime and fertilizer, and winter severity. No login. No paywall. Just the numbers.
Enter your county to get the MN DNR Winter Severity Index for the last 5 seasons. The WSI measures how hard a winter hit your deer herd โ days below 0ยฐF plus days of 15"+ snow depth โ and tells you what habitat investments will matter most heading into next year.
Enter your plot acreage and seed type to get the exact pounds needed, cost estimate, and agronomist planting notes โ for 9 common food plot species including clover, brassica, cereal rye, soybeans, and more. Based on UMN Extension seeding guidelines.
Enter your acreage, current soil pH, and soil texture to get tons of lime needed, N/P/K fertilizer targets, and common product amounts โ for 8 crop types. Clover, corn, brassica, cereal rye, and more. The single most common mistake in food plots is low pH; this tells you exactly how much to fix it.
Enter your property's land cover breakdown โ timber, edge, ag, food plots, open ground โ to estimate how many deer your land can sustainably support. Includes optimal herd target, doe harvest recommendation, and the single biggest limiting factor on your property.
