Chufa seed is an excellent choice for planting wildlife food plots, especially for attracting and sustaining wild turkeys. A member of the sedge family, chufa produces small, nut-like tubers beneath the soil that turkeys instinctively scratch up and eat. Highly nutritious and packed with energy, chufa provides a reliable food source that supports turkey populations year-round.

Easy to grow in well-drained soils with full sun, chufa thrives in a variety of climates and is drought-resistant once established. In addition to turkeys, it also attracts deer, waterfowl, and other game birds, making it a versatile addition to any wildlife management plan.

Whether you're looking to enhance your hunting land or support local turkey populations, chufa seed is a proven, effective option for a productive and sustainable food plot.

Planting Guidelines for Chufa

1. Site Selection

  • Choose a location with full sun and well-drained soil.
  • Avoid heavy clay soils that retain too much moisture.
  • Chufa grows best in sandy or loamy soils with a pH between 5.5 and 7.5.

2. Seedbed Preparation

  • Clear the area of weeds, grass, and debris.
  • Disk or till the soil to a depth of 4–6 inches for good seed-to-soil contact.
  • If soil pH is too low, apply lime to adjust it before planting.

3. Planting Time

  • Plant when soil temperatures reach at least 65°F (late spring to early summer).
  • The ideal planting window is April through July, depending on location.

4. Seeding Rate & Depth

  • Broadcast or drill 40–50 lbs. of chufa seed per acre.
  • Plant seeds 1–2 inches deep and cover with soil.
  • For small food plots, hand-spreading followed by light disking works well.

5. Fertilization & Weed Control

  • Apply 250–300 lbs. of 13-13-13 fertilizer per acre at planting.
  • Use a pre-emergent herbicide to control weeds or cultivate with light disking.
  • Once chufa is established, it shades out many weeds naturally.

6. Growth & Maturation

  • Chufa matures in about 90–110 days.
  • The plant develops grass-like foliage, but the tubers form underground.
  • Turkeys will begin scratching for tubers in late summer and fall.

7. Maintenance & Wildlife Access

  • To encourage turkey activity, mow or lightly disk a portion of the plot after tubers mature to expose some for easy feeding.
  • Rotate planting areas every 2–3 years to maintain productivity.

By following these planting guidelines, you’ll create a highly attractive and nutritious food plot that supports wild turkeys and other wildlife throughout the year.

Thought it was a good idea but not for my dog
Color: Blue
Seemed great but my dog continued to bark at it. Finally she hid it and I haven’t looked for it.

Durability
Color: Blue, Color: Blue
won’t give this product 1 star because my dog still had a good time with it for a few hours. After opening and preparing it, I gave it to my dog and it definitely caught his interest. However, when he chewed on it, plastic pieces started breaking off and he began swallowing them. This product is definitely not suitable for aggressive chewers.

Winner !!!
Color: Orange
This amazed us. For perspective, we're talking about a three year old white german shepherd who if he's in the mood, has and can kill a toy within minutes or oddly enough be gentle with furry balls and carry them around as if they are his babies. He's an odd duck. Anyway, since he was a pup, and to this day, he'll play and entertain himself, he'll grab a ball, throw it up in the air, then pounce on it as if it's from outer space. It's really quite cute and funny. Because of those two things I was looking for something interactive that would entertain him and confuse him....let's be honest, watching a confused dog is one of life's great pleasures. I tried two other interactive balls and they were crushed immediately. After reading a lot of reviews, people with german shepherds said this ball actually had a life span. I thought the third time could be the charm and ordered one. Well, I think it actually may be from outer space because he's obsessed with it and hasn't taken a bite out of it. He hasn't once chewed it or even teared little pieces off. The three settings are great. Sometimes he likes one better than another, then forgets about the others. I'll change it up to one he hasn't seen in a while and the whole game starts over again. He'll throw it up in the air as he does with his others, watch it and try to figure out which way it's going to go. And yes, he will pounce on it if he times it right. The size is perfect, it's heavier than your average ball but, that's what make it sturdy. I have to sneak it away when he isn't paying attention to charge it, otherwise he'll sit, stare and cry if he knows it's on the counter charging. It's a lot of fun for all of us. I'm so happy I bought it...... I say give this ball a chance even if you have a beast with killer instincts. I'm buying another for a friends 2 year old golden retriever granddog. Thank you Cheerble.

Perfect Size for Tiny Dogs
Style: 14" Length Sport Launcher, Style: 14" Length Sport Launcher
Excellent size for tiny dogs who can only manage the tiny tennis balls. The launcher is easy to use, even for my 8 year old. It’s pretty much revolutionized ball time for the dogs and the kids - they actually like taking him out to play fetch now. It’s super light but still lets you toss the balls a lot farther than just throwing it. Great value for your money and it’s helps strong for weeks of repeated used, super durable.
