Yep - the 30 day clause is the disclaimer.

Food plots are legal in all states as far as I know.

If you really wanted to know - call the White-tail institute - I'll bet they are very sure on where there products are legal to plant!

It would be a little hard to hunt anywhere here in the Southeast without being near crops.There is a corn field or grass or grain fields everywhere.Then you have the thousands of bird feeders in the suburban yards.The deer are traveling all the time from fields and bird feeders.Also I witnessed many times deer standing on the sites where the State and local counties and townships store the salt for snowstorms.The deer love to lick on it.Is that a food plot??

Thanks for the replies guys. Sorry for taking so long to reply, computer problems.

I just didn't want to do something illegal and these stupid Pennsylvania laws are a little confussing. I think that I will get it in writting before I go hunting over it. I have an area where I figure the deer will be comming from, heck, my ladder stand is already on the major trail that leads from a thick hillside full of brush onto an old trolly line that leads into my yard where the plot would be planted.

Thanks guys, I'll let you know what I find out.

Hey guys,

I just got off the phone with the Game Commission. They said that hunting over a food plot is perfectly legal. They said that what the book means is that you can't throw corn out and hunt over that. The guy I talked to said that a food plot is considered as the same thing as a corn field. So, I am gonna e-mail a couple web-sites about what to plant, when, and how. Thanks guys.
