Due to the price increase for corn and related crops, after 4 years of soybeans, they are planting our field in milo (soil not right for corn). I'm disappointed, but am looking forward to the challenge and change of scouting and figuring out what they do with the Milo.

GMMAT, the deer where we hunt absolutely terrorize the soybeans (no need for summer food plot), especially if you get any second growth after harvest. Once there is even a light freeze, all of the soybean plants will die. BUT, the deer will continue to browse the old pods and spilt beans remaining on the ground. The other thing about soybeans is that it doesn't give the deer any cover, so usually they are only going to do nocturnal feeding on it, or feed close to cover or around a bend, etc.
