Planting rice

I have had quite a bit of experience seeing where folks must have been planting milo and corn for them. But oddly they always did it during the duck season and piled it under the water.

I have planted rice for ducks and hunted many a rice field - never in NC though. There are a bunch of seed companies out there that sell rice for waterfowl habitat, though the best luck I've had is with the Milagro variety. It grows like a weed and produces a lot of seed.

We shot a 3 man limit over 20 acres of rice in Hyde county Saturday. It can be grown in NC just have to know how.

I’ve actually read that Chufa can be nearly as good as rice though it’s normally thought of as a Turkey food plot crop.
