            <description><![CDATA[ I was wondering if anyone would know any good range management for Whitetail Deer?<br />
What would be the best plants to raise on rangeland to get good results from the deer<br />
that reside on that rangeland?]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ As I mentioned in my grazing post I have a working relationship with a landowner from Colorado. He bought this 1700 ac ranch to manage mostly for wildlife, ducks in particular. He has talked to Ducks Unlimited but I don't know who. He is interested in hearing from a range management specialist with some expertise in wildlife management. We tried to get Kevin Sedavic to come out last year but it didn't work out. I can arrange a meeting with him if you think you could help. <br />
<br />
He has two large pastures, about 500 ac, that he grazes around 100 cows on in a once over two pasture rotation. He has little to no use in parts of these pastures because of the light stocking rate. Liter accumulation in these areas is excessive and similar to non-use. I try to manage a 4 pasture twice over rotation on 200 acres, to show him the benefits. So far he is not completely convinced that a grazing system is better for ducks, but there have been problems with rotating these pastures because of availability of water.]]></description>
