Want to see more dove later this year? Plant browntop millet.

July is the time to plant browntop millet to attract dove and benefit many other game and non-game birds. With a 60-day maturation period, early July plantings will produce a tremendous amount of seed by September. Additionally, browntop millet is one of the most economical and attractive plantings for dove and generates much more seed and attraction than simply broadcasting wheat a few weeks prior to dove season.
