re: Planted summer plots today

I’m no farmer either, would hate to have to make a living that way, I’d be pretty skinny.
On feeding corn and protein, we and several neighbors were feeding protein before our big drought in 2011 it think it was. We had a big die off from that drought, deer population crashed. Took a long time to recover and when the deer population had recovered most folks had lost interest in protein
Fast forward to 2 years ago, my first Fall Release planting, deer walked into the plots with their noses on the ground, when they looked up peas were hanging out of their mouths. They hardy glanced at corn, corn feeders became crow feeders.
One more benefit to the project. I don’t buy corn or protein now.
