The pipeline gets wooly through the summer, plus it is now growing a lot of autumn olive and bush honeysuckle. The pipeline company bush hogs it every fall, and that makes it easy to travel on foot or utility vehicle.
Down on the south 1/4 mile it looks a bit better. We put wildlife food plots on that portion, and we don't have the invasive plants trying to take over there. I am thinking that I need to start discing the entire length and sow wheat on it.
This plot was sowed to wheat last fall and clover was added in the spring. There is a little plot of corn just north of it. Turn around and look the other way and we have a freshly tilled plot that is now sowed to wheat. Autumn olive and bush honeysuckle are along the edges where I can spray it easily to control it. It sure looks better than having invasive brush taking over every summer.
