Does anybody know if I can purchase RR clover yet? I know there were some issues with selling it....they have the RR alfalfa....but, it is spendy....

Also, can you purchase RR sweet corn? I know Green Giant uses the product, but is it released to the public?

I don't think round up ready corn is available to the public.  However a farmer friend of mine is always given a small bag of it that he gives away.  However I have declined it from him the last few years so I'm sure he has already given it away.

RR corn is easy available lots of varietys .  As well as the RR soy beans.  RR Alfalfa is a different story... NOT to be sold for Food Plots  ya must sign off its for Ag production to buy..plus really expensive but NOT as bad as RR Sweet corn last year was 5 Bills/bag. The left overs (RR corn and beans)from the year before are sometimes available free or Min cost from some Pheasant Forever chapters.  For plots just asking your fav big farmer for leaven's after they are done planting can be enough for a a couple 2- 5 acres plots.  Ive never planted RR beans but sounds like most use forage RR beans instead of the regular grain RR beans.

Yeah I meant RR sweet corn.  I gave HD a gallon bag of RR field corn last year.

From my experience most clover is RR ready by default.  It is very difficult to kill with Roundup.  Spraying may set it back a little but usually doesn't kill it.  A number of my plots have a base clover growth that does not get killed off when I spray the weeds/grass.
