    Yeah, farmers of all people should understand population dynamics and herd management principles
    But I often see high fallow numbers on the back of farms that limit their potential long term

    I also know a few farmers who actually don't realize just how many deer they have because they are time poor and aren't out there in the dark with a thermal to get a decent idea of numbers
    I recently had a farmer comment " I haven't seen any fallow lately " as I met him coming back from a hunt on foot. He was on his quad because it's a massive farm.
    I had seen 30 deer that morning but shot none because I was shooting some old relic and needed to be within spitting distance
