Is planting and flooding a crop field baiting or not baiting?

Seems there is alot of confusion on this so I asked the USFW Headquarters in Virginia for some clarrification.

Moist Soils Management... Attract and hold more ducks to our areas and favorite hunting spots. Moist Soils Management is the technique of using low depressional or flat slope areas to flood crops for waterfowl food sources and attractions.

Both divers and dabblers love Star Duckweed and is the most preferred duckweed by waterfowl. 

SECURE EARLY as we harvest from the wild and there are limited amounts.

Individuals of star duckweed are called fronds. Each frond consists of a small, green, floating body with a single root that extends into the water from the undersurface, but is not rooted to the soil. They do best in full sun and in nutrient rich water. Under those conditions they can grow rapidly, reproducing not by seeds, but by simple division of a frond to produce a new "daughter" frond. The developing daughter fronds remain attached to the "mother" frond for a short time as shown above, but eventually break apart.

DUCK FOOD PLOTS       FOOD PLOT SEED

"Mallard Millet" is a great millet to plant for waterfowl! Plant seed annually onto mudflats, damp soils or floodable areas produces desirable seeds for waterfowl.

BARNYARD GRASS (Wild Millet) 

A waterfowl favorite food source!!  Barnyard grass is an annual that propogates from seed and grows in clumps in damp soils to shallow water.  Outyields millet by 30-50 percent and produces over 2,000 pounds of seed per acre with no fertilizer. The forage has a strong stalk, short maturity and can re-seed itself the following year and come up to a complete stand if sufficient seed is still in the soil.

Maturity is usually around 60-90 days depending on soils and growing days.  Plan for seedind dates 60-90 days prior to when you want your seed to harden up and be avialble for use.  Broadcast or drill seed 1/4 inch deep.  Full seeding rate - 100 lbs./acre
