Easiest thing to do is just bush hog it and throw a bunch of cracked corn and wild bird seed out. They will come.

Don't know much about agriculture, but here's a tip.

I did think of one thing. A ten acre field is big. I wouldn't go any bigger.

I don't know what everyone is saying dove fields don't do great for, in the upstate I've never really hunted a bad field except the public ones. Hell I've got a 3/4 acre food plot with a feeder and they pour 40-50 at a time in the evenings i can only imagine what it would be like if we planted an actual field in one of the pastures.

We have a 15 acre field with 15 members. Generally only get half turn out per given hunt. It’s hard to cover with only a few hunters. We had 25+ acres last year and it was dang near impossible.
It looks to be a good spot. I see a pond, ag fields and a branch. I’m sure deer are there which will make flowers tough. 25 acres is a lot to depend on a farmer to do. His stuff will get priority with his time and an unkept field isn’t worth it. So let him plant corn in it and bargain him leave strips of 4-6 rows. Buy you a chipper shredder.

All of that hard work, time, and money spent means nothing if Mother Nature chooses not to cooperate. It is a risk worth taking though, the way I see it anyway.
Yup...farmers work is priority. Not the dove field. I disk and sew my own wheat for 2nd season.
Might entertain this route. A friends family that doesn’t really hunt owns the land. Right now a farmer leases to plant various crops.
That pond is spring fed and the area adjacent to it is an old duck small pond/impound that hasn’t been used in about 20yrs.
