I don't see anything wrong with a feeding program for wildlife. as much habitat as humans take away for new sub-divisions and golf courses.
conservation is the key, don't take more than you need and always leave some seed.

I'll be hand scattering corn this season for turkey. I'm trying to find a good call to use.

I agree with the state laws and the concerning issue about when to supplement and why. For me, I stick to year round food plots if I can, weather permitting. My clover, chufa, buckwheat, chicory, corn and the like grow 9 months of the year, and then the oats, forage hay, and winter clovers take care of the colder months. I know some colder states cannot do that, but there are native grasses, prarie plants, and cold tolerant clovers and peas that you can plant and have great success. You can even bring in certain insects, grubs, worms, and beetles with certain food plots. But as for dry grain, corn, or even oats, I don't supplement, as the food plots do more than supplementation, they provide a landscape for the turks, quail, and the pheasant. Since incorporating food plots 8 years ago, I have had a better population with better health and nutiritional improvements. If anyone needs help of food plots, even in the most horrible soil, let me know. I am a horticulturalist, nurseryman, and farmer. Sorry to ones for getting off the subject, but I just wanted to show that just dry grains and minerals are not the only option, and sometimes statewise, its not an option at all.:)
