[QUOTE="DoubleRidge, post: 5847768, member: 20594"] Not entirely true...but would agree that most, not all, food plots have a stand or blind near them. We have two plots on the farm that do not have stands or blinds on them and they are not hunted. Another difference is that right now deer are using our food plots and have been the last two months since we stopped hunting the farm. The cereal rye and winter wheat is green and they are hammering it right now....then this spring the crimson clover will come in and the deer and turkey will benifit from it....completely different than if we poured out some bag of cheap corn which may or may not have or develop aflatoxin. When baiting most people will stop when their hunt is over unlike a food plot that continues to provide benifits. Also bait concentrates deer making them more susceptible to predators and disease where food plots do not...and massive ammounts of farm equipment are not required to put out food plots but it does take effort and work, unlike pouring out a bag of corn on the ground...so I agree that the better question is whats best for all wildlife? Bait piles or no bait piles? I vote no bait piles. [/QUOTE]
