[QUOTE="Hunter 257W, post: 3939505, member: 12277"] One idea to help with the crop damage would be to plant some strategically located food plots that would draw deer away from the row crops. That way the farmer gets a higher yield and you don't have to kill a bunch of does out of season. Plant something different from whatever the farmer is planting too might help draw deer away from the crops too. A good annual such as Imperial clover will already be up and growing when soybeans would be sprouting and are most tempting to the deer. The deer will still eat some of the beans but the clover would take a lot of the pressure off. Especially if they are in a good secluded location. I try to do that on my farm but honestly I don't have deer numbers like you are talking about either. The deer can't even make a dent in the several thousand acres of soybeans around here. [/QUOTE]
