The best tools for planting a food plot

What happens here

The host attaches a cultipacker, a specialized roller with T-shaped discs, to the Kubota B2320 tractor. He explains that the cultipacker's primary function is to press the broadcasted seeds down into the soil, ensuring good seed-to-soil contact which is vital for germination. This particular cultipacker from Everything Attachments also features a clever built-in stand. This stand can be deployed by loosening bolts and flipping it into place, allowing the cultipacker to be stored upright when not in use, preventing rust and corrosion. After preparing the cultipacker, the host drives the tractor over the newly seeded food plot. He also plans to broadcast an additional layer of Ladino clover seed using a small Scotts HandyGreen II spreader before the final cultipacking pass. He notes that Ladino clover is a self-seeding perennial, meaning it will return year after year without needing to be replanted.

Goal: Ensure seed-to-soil contact and plant perennial clover
