Thoughts on legality of this (dove hunting)

fws.gov states..
My local extension service website lists rye and wheat as being able to be planted starting 9/1. So if I plant wheat on 9/1 according to their guidelines and hunt later that week that would be legal.
Thoughts on this before I contact my local GW?

What is Legal? You can hunt doves, on, over, or from:

Lands planted as wildlife food plots, provided the seed is planted in a manner consistent with Cooperative State Research, Education, and Extension Service recommendations for the planting of wildlife food plots.

Lands planted as pasture improvements or for the purpose of grazing livestock.

If seeds are covered you should be fine.

Our doves love corn chops. That's all we spread out

In Ga, you'd more than likely get slapped with a ticket.

Green jeans has a square that looks like a empty picture frame they will throw down on the ground if they can count x amount of exposed seed your area is considered baited. They will also sneak into your field and do it a week before season opens and then bust the whole field opening day. They will have a binder full of pictures they took. Some will be the picture frame thing with the seeds counted out for you and they will present this too you like a birthday gift. They will swarm in from all sides of the field on 4 wheelers. Some will come out the trees and if it's a big enough bust the will have a chopper! They will ask everyone to get into a single file line and they will take the serial numbers on all the guns in the field and take your birds and give everyone except kids a ticket. They will send the owner/main person in charge of the field to federal court in New Orleans where they will suspend his hunting license for 2 years and fine him about 2000 plus court fees. I seen em do it!

I thought the field just had to have been tilled/disk up...(in AL).
Admittedly I haven't been out dove hunting in several years though. Too hot and it clashed with football games.
Edit:. Apparently I was wrong
