| Is there something I could plant that the deer would like and be beneficial to the soil. Got a piece I'm not going to use, and thought if I plant something they would like, would stay out of the othe vegetables lol. Thanks |

Turnips ,radishes , clover , forage oats, wheat , most anything that is green . See a lot of rye grass being sown in the fall around here . Then they burn it with roundup before planting or harvest it if they have cattle to feed . Weed control is main purpose, but wildlife benefits also. ------------- You only need to know 3 things to be a plumber;Crap rolls down hill,Hot is on the left and Don't bite your fingernails 1964 D-17 SIV 3 Pt.WF,1964 D-15 Ser II 3pt.WF ,1960 D-17 SI NF,1956 WD 45 WF. |

No that's not at all what I want. I rotate winter squash around farm. The spot there in is along woods and the deer come out of woods and put a hurting on them last year, so I thought of a cover crop in between to maybe keep them from squash and in the same time helping soil. I have family that fill there tags each year. I would take them all out if we're up to me |
