IF they show up during shooting hours. I also think the food often (not always) has to be fairly remote and/or hidden or at least far away from the road if you want to increase your chances of seeing them during shooting hours.
If possible, I would think about hunting the edges of cover on the way to the food. That way you increase your chances of intercepting them before shooting light and often can get in and out of your spot undetected easier. I think if you set up right on top of the crop field and can't get out without spooking them on the first hunt, that spot is done for the rest of the year. Or at least goes very cold.
Good luck. I just put my camera out near a picked corn field Saturday and hoping the action picks up to make it worth a few sits.
