Ford:
That my friend would be a mechanized crop manipulation if the ear isn't harvested. It doesn't closely/fully "mimic" a farm related practice although, a bushog is used after mechanical harvesting in a clearing/cleaning effort in order to plant the next crop. The Feds have been on our case about mechanized crop manipulation, via a 4-wheeler, in a attempt(covert OP) to box us in a corner, establish a "guide" related service which would make it commercial and then apply the hefty penalty. But if you have an approved plan by the U.S.D.A, Cooperative State Research, Cooperative Extension Service, etc., then you have something similar to a best management or practice that would fit the pigeon hole of paralleling a farming practice. Bunch of junk & hoops just to hunt in the U.S. of A.
Kind Regards,
