Millet duck pond

I like to wait until later in the year to plant mine. Just have to have rain if you cant provide water

We drill it in

It is not near as effective for ducks as rice. Personally, I like something with a good tall stalk that the slugs and snails will get in. Our ducks arent pounding rice seed, they want the invertebrates

Will barnyard grass or wild millet grow in brackish water ??

You fertilize your natural grasses and spray for broadleaf

If we're talking duck ponds, then no I don't spray for broadleafs. Because smart weed and some other weeds make great duck food. I just scatter different millets, like barnyard grass or Jap or browntop. Then fertilize and let them go. Fertilizer is important to make a strong stalk so that they stay upright longer and don't collapse as easily. And for making more grain.

Where can you purchase Wild Millet by the sack ???
