I like clover/chicory for deer and turkeys- cheap and easy to get established your first year of growing a food plot, the following years if weeds are kept in check comes back fuller and more lush allowing a great food source for 5 years or better. This fall I am planting oats in the same existing clover/chicory plot. This method provides food from the very beginning of spring lasting until winter when the oats die. During the non growing season I use feeders to supply additional food (baiting being illegal here in Pa, I wait till I am done hunting for the season)
I also plant soybean and corn but have more field to do that in. With less acreage I suggestthe clover-chicory/oat for a longer lasting plot.
