Chufa seed is an excellent choice for planting wildlife food plots, especially for attracting and sustaining wild turkeys. A member of the sedge family, chufa produces small, nut-like tubers beneath the soil that turkeys instinctively scratch up and eat. Highly nutritious and packed with energy, chufa provides a reliable food source that supports turkey populations year-round.

Easy to grow in well-drained soils with full sun, chufa thrives in a variety of climates and is drought-resistant once established. In addition to turkeys, it also attracts deer, waterfowl, and other game birds, making it a versatile addition to any wildlife management plan.

Whether you're looking to enhance your hunting land or support local turkey populations, chufa seed is a proven, effective option for a productive and sustainable food plot.

Planting Guidelines for Chufa

1. Site Selection

  • Choose a location with full sun and well-drained soil.
  • Avoid heavy clay soils that retain too much moisture.
  • Chufa grows best in sandy or loamy soils with a pH between 5.5 and 7.5.

2. Seedbed Preparation

  • Clear the area of weeds, grass, and debris.
  • Disk or till the soil to a depth of 4–6 inches for good seed-to-soil contact.
  • If soil pH is too low, apply lime to adjust it before planting.

3. Planting Time

  • Plant when soil temperatures reach at least 65°F (late spring to early summer).
  • The ideal planting window is April through July, depending on location.

4. Seeding Rate & Depth

  • Broadcast or drill 40–50 lbs. of chufa seed per acre.
  • Plant seeds 1–2 inches deep and cover with soil.
  • For small food plots, hand-spreading followed by light disking works well.

5. Fertilization & Weed Control

  • Apply 250–300 lbs. of 13-13-13 fertilizer per acre at planting.
  • Use a pre-emergent herbicide to control weeds or cultivate with light disking.
  • Once chufa is established, it shades out many weeds naturally.

6. Growth & Maturation

  • Chufa matures in about 90–110 days.
  • The plant develops grass-like foliage, but the tubers form underground.
  • Turkeys will begin scratching for tubers in late summer and fall.

7. Maintenance & Wildlife Access

  • To encourage turkey activity, mow or lightly disk a portion of the plot after tubers mature to expose some for easy feeding.
  • Rotate planting areas every 2–3 years to maintain productivity.

By following these planting guidelines, you’ll create a highly attractive and nutritious food plot that supports wild turkeys and other wildlife throughout the year.

98% cotton comfort
Color: Black, Size: Large
It's true to size. I have a 42" chest and typically wear a large. I ordered large and it fits. Grab these while you can as most of these mock neck t shirts are a cotton poly blend. These are 98% cotton. This is important because although the cotton/poly blends dry quicker, they are uncomfortably warm if it gets above 70 F. I have purchased other mock turtlenecks and had my local dry cleaners convert them from long sleeves to short, but they are slightly heavier weight than these. I do wish that they made these in a dark green or military green color.

100% SYNTHETIC CONSTRUCTION!!!
Color: All White, Size: XX-Large, Color: All White, Size: XX-Large
When I bought this shirt, the listing claimed it was 95% cotton and 5% spandex... the shirt that arrived was 51% polyester, 43% viscose and 6% spandex! I have been impressed by some of their other clothing, but this is the first time I was completely lied to and bamboozled. I probably wouldn't have noticed if the shirt wasn't so hot, shiny, and uncomfortable! I will absolutely be returning this shirt. Not even CLOSE to what I wanted. Quite, quite disappointed.
