This video explores ragweed as a surprising and valuable food source for deer, often overlooked by hunters. Wildlife biologist Bonner Powell, in collaboration with Mossberg, discusses why deer are attracted to this bitter weed, highlighting its nutritional benefits during different growth stages. It's rich in protein when young, and provides essential minerals like calcium, potassium, and phosphorus. In the fall and winter, its seeds become a vital energy and fat source.

Powell highlights wheat's lower cost and less demanding cultivation requirements compared to corn. The video emphasizes creating food plots that are safe havens for doves, ensuring they have access to necessary resources. Wildlife Investments, a scientific group of hunters, is promoted for their expertise in wildlife conservation and food plot development.
