I personally think there is no real difference in the two. Sure there is more work to food plots BUT they are both using food to attract wildlife/whitetail. Also one is legal and one not.

I feel as though there is a big difference in planting an agriculture crop and pouring 50lbs of corn on the ground.

I don't have a problem with food plots, but I think there are way too many hunters that rely on hunting over food plots.

generally a food plot is much more spread out than a pile of corn. animals sharing a pile of corn will be in very close contact increasing the risk of spreading disease. the corn itself can actually kill the deer. if not refreshed often, the corn will be gone after a while. the food plot benefits the deer for months.

this again.....geesh!!!!!
lol
I don't care for hunting over food plots either...Planting food to attract animals that is not natural in the area is not right..IMO. Anyone ever seen any biologic growing on the side of the road or on the dinner table????
Planitng them to help the herd is great but plant it in an area where you are not hunting.....
and no, bean and corn fields are NOT foodplots.....lol.
