i would say step 2 is asking the farmers what the deer are eating from their crops the most..just plot that and you'll be in good shape.i am planting corn stalks next year for about a 20X15 yrd area above my existing plot, eventually i will have all 281X15-20 yards of plot gl
Many of the farmers plant corn, but I have also heard alot of farmers plant soybeans, but they are a few miles from my property. I dont think I would be able to pull off planting corn though... Dont you have to plant them in rows and all by hand if you dont have the equipment?
