Actually that is a good sign. It means the deer have plenty of better tasting stuff to eat, and are not desparate enough to eat turnips or rape.

Roundup ready sugarbeets have a higher preference, and useage, but are no longer available to foodplotters.

Now I just plant RR corn and RR soybeans for a winter foodsource. White clovers and RR soybeans for summer forage.
