  • The farmer made a mistake. He started harvesting then stopped, which creates perfect landing areas for the pigeons. Now is the time to call in probably the best shot in the world, George Digweed, to stop the pigeons landing. The summer weather is perfect. George shows how to plan a campaign against pigeons over oilseed rape, and how to execute it. It ends up his biggest pigeon day of the year so far.

    Why shoot pigeons?
    The woodpigeon is recognised as the UK’s number one agricultural pest and causes millions of pounds of damage (AHDB consultation 10-40% loss in yield. Equivalent loss of £125/ha for Oil Seed Rape, £250/ha for peas, £350-£1250/ha for brassicas) to agricultural crops every year including cereals, brassicas, oilseed rape, peas and salad crops. Pigeon damage reduces the yield, quality, appearance and ultimately the saleability of the crop. Pigeons can also cause damage in gardens and allotments - pecking at the leaves and ripping off portions, often leaving just the stalks and larger leaf veins. They may also attack and strip buds, leaves and fruits off trees and bushes.
    The UK woodpigeon population was last estimated at 5.4 million pairs in 2009. Densities of wood pigeon are the highest in Eastern England, coinciding with the highest concentration of horticultural production.
    Wild pigeon (game) is natural and free range, and it is one of the healthiest meats available today. It’s low in cholesterol and high in protein… and, quite simply, delicious.

    The hardest thing about hunting for me is asking land owners for permission to hunt.

      Get out and knock doors, failing that offer to volunteer for farmers and ask for a bit of shooting in return.
