Check out the Fort Pierre National Grasslands, I’ve heard of people having success out there with Prairie Chickens

As industrial hemp is about to change our lives in a big way, South Dakota is one of three states (Neb,Idaho) that have laws banning all forms of Marijuana. South Dakota is the only state with laws in place to ban CBD oil (hemp produced) these few lines written in the farm bill looks to have...

Very interesting and solid information, seems crops are staying in later and hemp being harvested early wouldn’t be the worst. I am looking for a hearty food plot and hemp still interests me

Interesting photo, first hemp field I’ve seen. I am surprised to see no cover, kinda reminds me of hunting juniper tree strips, but with no grass. Thanks for the info...I bet you could plant it in plots thick enough to hold birds

Apparently some states could grow hemp but couldn’t transport it out of state. Now that hemp is legal to grow and sell in all 50 states I could see it becoming huge in SD. I am curious how it will be to hunt hemp for pheasants, obviously the cover is outstanding and maybe the hemp seeds could...

Hemp hasn’t been grown commercially since 1937. Hemp plants grown commercially won’t get you high like marijuana. Hemp would be grown like milo or corn. It could replace paper, clothing, packaging etc I also found a article from 1971 that was written about the wild hemp growing in northern...

Curious if anyone knows what the newly signed farm bill has in regards to South Dakota CRP... Also, I see hemp is legalized in the bill could this be a new crop introduced to SD? I could see hemp having great cover for pheasants. Interesting times.

Great pics...I left SD Nov. 20, corn was about 1/2 harvested, wish I could have hunted December. Congrats on the new pup

Thank you for sharing, I went through the same thing last summer, I brought my dogs ashes to South Dakota last year, I didn’t plan on spreading them, I just wanted him along. I hunted with a buddies dog and it wasn’t the same. I just returned from South Dakota this year with my new 7month old...

Can life get any better

12 years straight coming from Western Washington, I have taken his picture in that spot on the full moon rise the last 5 years, probably last trip with him, thank you for the well wishes. Best of luck to you in 18’

Thank you for the reply, here’s to a great season

I am happy to see a trend in the right direction I was bummed to hear golf ball sized hail fell in Lyman County today. Say the chicks are 8-10 weeks along, would anyone care to speculate on the damage that would do? Thank you

I think a harvested field still has plenty of food...I've seen more accessible grain in a harvested field than unharvested, but with a early harvest this year it's hard to say what will be left by mid Dec. If the weather is cold look for juniper tree shelter belts, if there is snow there should...

I have heard south central SD has had a big spring wheat harvest and it looks like driving the country that 1/3 of the crops have already been harvested. ..shouldn't take long for the guys to cut the remaining fall crop....could be a lights out opener if all the crops are harvested....it has...
