throw and grow
Chufas, corn and clover.
My most productive plots have been white clover. I don't know if it's available everywhere and if deer where you live prefer something else but here in Maine it's a great calling card. The stuff I use will grow for about four years before I till it under and plant again. Easy to plant too, just throw it on the ground and lightly hit the area with a rake. I bush hog each plot twice a year to keep the height down and have been very pleased.
My best luck has come from planting clover and Iron Clay Peas. Deer LOVE! it,and turkey will scratch at the clover. In fact it is such an attraction, it is hard to keep them away from it to let it grow. It is something you will need to plant every year but it is not that expensive, we plant spring and fall. Hope this helps, Good Luck and Good Hunting.
i would have to agree and say clover i have a plot near a creek that works pretty well
grass, wheat, flowers and garden plants work too
