Best Wildlife Food Plot Fertilizer (19-19-19): Maximum Balanced NPK for Bigger Plots, Better Browse & More Deer Buy on Old Cobblers Farm
Food plots compete with surrounding forest for deer attention. The plots that win are the ones with the most nutrition, the densest growth, and the greenest forage. 19-19-19 delivers 57% total NPK — nearly double a standard fertilizer — for food plots that outperform everything around them.
Old Cobblers Farm™ Wicked Growth Wildlife Deer Plot Fertilizer
by Conventional Fertilizer — Littleton, NH
Built for Food Plots
At 200–300 lbs per acre, 19-19-19 is the industry-standard food plot fertilizer recommendation. Clover, brassicas, and cereal grain plots respond with dramatically better growth and browse quality.
57% Total NPK
Nearly double the nutrient density of 10-10-10. Fewer bags per acre, less hauling into remote plots, and more nutrition per dollar spent.
Higher Protein in Forage
Nitrogen drives protein production in clover and brassica leaves. Well-fertilized plots produce higher-protein browse that keeps deer coming back and supports antler growth.
1,000 sq ft Per Bag
At the lighter rate, one 5 lb bag covers 1,000 sq ft of food plot. The 20 lb bag handles nearly a tenth of an acre at full rate.
Water Soluble
Dissolves in rain or irrigation for rapid nutrient availability. Critical for remote food plots where you can't water in — let the next rain activate the fertilizer.
Fast Establishment
Quick-release formula gets seedlings growing fast after broadcast seeding. Rapid canopy closure outcompetes weeds and establishes the plot before hunting season.
All Food Plot Species
Clover, brassicas, chicory, cereal rye, oats, alfalfa, annual rye, and custom food plot mixes — this formula works with every common food plot planting.
