SO.....all of these corn and soybean fields here in the Midwest need to be dug up and moved every few daysso that the deers feeding habits don't alter? That makes no sense to me, deer will only hit a feeder hard if there is no other food source readily available, they are mostly browsers, theywon't founder. A picked corn/soybeanfield is loaded with "dropped grain", sowhy isn'tevery deer in the adjacent woods standing side by side for hours on end in these fields?We all know deer do come to these fields and eat, but not to eat until they areon the verge of engorgement.Yes, at certain times you may drive by a field and see a bunch of deer in a field, but for the most part that is in the late winter months
Solo,.... deer aren't totally smart. If they have a big pile of corn in an area where food is scarce they'll go right to it and pig out. Nutrician experts will tell you a big helping of corn does not provide all they need. It's a short term fix for a hungry stomach. The fields you talk about are not piles. Deer feed going and while there they have to forge and they nibble other things along the way. Your fields are not the same as a bait site. At the bait site deer stop browsing and foraging as they do to, in and around your fields.
