24% less feed nitrogen lost in urine and fecesWhat the experts are sayingAccording to certified wildlife biologist and deer expert Kent Kammermeyer, "as a deer mix, Sweet Spot™ with its clover, chicory and high quality grass is as good as it gets. The protein levels are high and so are the digestibility and total palatability. The high digestibility rate is important because it ensures the deer is utilizing needed protein and nutrients instead of high fiber content of forages which pass through the animal with reduced benefit." High Sugar Grasses work especially well for deer with their complex 4-stomach digestive system, aiding in protein absorption. According to Kent, "This mix also works as an all-around blend, benefiting and attracting wild turkeys, wild hogs and rabbits." 15# for a 1/2 acre =$40 to $70
