Default RE: Do deer eat orchard grass?

The WHIP plantings are for CRP, not deer specifically. The mix you used sounds like something our DNR biologist recommended for use on field edges to make a transition zone between the field and the timber. This is more of a upland/small game management tool than deer.

Depending on the amount of Orchard grass, I wouldn't be too concerned to start with. Let it go until next year and see what happens. Worst case, you can use a grass specific herbicide to get rid of it and still keep the clover.
