I have planted both RR beans and regular beans side by side and they eat both just as much. If you want to see how much they eat, just put a 4'x4' wire exclosure cage in the middle of the bean plot. In my plot the beans in the exclosure were about 14 inchs high and the plants outside were a very nice even 7" to 8". Oh yes, the deer do also readily eat RR corn and RR conola. For some reason this year more than others they seem to be eating the corn plants from the time they started to grow. I have come to rely on the round up ready crops for a good clean field and better crop. I have sprayed a few fields as many as three times were there are bad reocurring germinations of weeds.
