HOW WE STARTED WELCOME TO TECOMATE SEED

For over 25 years, Tecomate principles and wildlife management pioneers David Morris and Dr. Gary Schwarz have led the charge in the food plot revolution by working with wildlife biologists and agronomists to maximize wildlife nutrition through food plot management. What they discovered has become the foundation for a year-round nutritional program that is unparalleled in its results. The idea behind the Tecomate Food Plot System is simple: By planting the right plants in the right way, food plots can be used to grow more and bigger bucks; attract and hold deer in a specific area; and relieve pressure on the native habitat so that it actually improves ‌ to the benefit of all wildlife species! We know this to be true because we are doing it on our own properties and helping countless others do it on theirs.

THE TECOMATE FOOD PLOT SYSTEM Developing effective deer nutrition products requires a working knowledge of what deer need and want - nutrition and attraction are paramount. Tecomate researchers know that quality seeds, cultivars and hybrids can best provide the proper balance between nutrition and palatability. In addition, since most food plots are at the mercy of natural rainfall and temperature, we understand the importance of selecting varieties that survive a wide range of weather conditions.

Varieties are selected for drought tolerance, germination rate, disease resistance and hardiness, as well as nutrition and palatability.

Each selection is tested and studied in a controlled environment before extensive field testing by partner universities and qualified experts around the U.S.

TECOMATE MISSION STATEMENT To inform, equip and assist sportsmen with dreams of managing their own recreational property and a desire to be better stewards of the land and wildlife God entrusted to us. ~3~

TECOMATE SEED - FIRST IN WILDLIFE NUTRITION

HOW & WHERE TO PLANT Planting food plots can be a very rewarding activity, but it takes time and a lot of hard work. In this section we will go over some of the key steps and things to keep in mind when preparing to plant a food plot, and putting the seed in the ground.

• Pick the Right Location: You’ll want to pick an open area that gets plenty of sunlight, and is relatively level.

• Kill Existing Vegetation: Spray the area with an herbicide to kill any weeds or grasses that are already growing.

• Take a Soil Sample: This is one of the most important, but overlooked steps in food plot planting. See our website (www.tecomate.com), or your county extension office, for more information on how to take a soil sample.

• Turn The Soil: Till or disc the area to turn the dead weeds and vegetation underground.

• Lime and Fertilize: Apply lime and fertilizer at the prescribed rate from your soil test results. Disc or till again to mix the lime and fertilizer into the soil.

• Plant: You should now have a clean and level seedbed to plant on. Broadcast or drill seed at the planting rate we have supplied on the bag, and be sure to plant seed at the correct depth. If your seed is planted too deep, or too shallow, it will not germinate as well as it should.

• Pray For Rain: Unless you have the ability to irrigate, try to time your planting when rain is in the forecast.

If you want more detailed information on how and where to plant your food plots, visit us at www.tecomate.com, or call us (210-408-6161).

FOOD PLOT PLANNING

The Tecomate Zone Map is a valuable tool when planning food plots.

Tecomate recommendations are based on extensive research and quantified results in specific zones. Further, each recommended product is regionally blended using seeds that are best suited for the climate and rainfall in that area.

TECOMATE SEED ZONE MAP

Tecomate Seed makes product recommendations based specifically on the region where they are best adapted (see map below). Recognizing that areas of the country differ in environmental conditions is only one piece of the puzzle.

Regional Tecomate agronomists are an integral part of the sales effort. As a result, our sales representatives are regionally trained to understand the environmental requirements of plants and wildlife. Additionally, regional representation provides better understanding of distribution needs and the customer’s perception of the Tecomate Seed brand.
