Default field cover

I have a 5 acre food plot. One of my problems is that the field is wide open no cover for animals to feed. They feed in the field very seldom during the daylight for this reason. I am looking for ways to provide cover in the field year-round. Does anyone have any feasible ideas. I have tossed around the idea of putting in some small metal fence posts and running some woven wire on them and then planting some type of ivy that would grow on the wire. Don't know what ivy type would be acceptable though I don't want it to run on the ground and take over the plot. I could periodically use the weedeater to keep it off the ground. Any other thoughts to provide cover?
