This may be a dumb question but will deer dig turnips up or do they just eat the leaves off a turnip--how does this work? Thanks!!
BSK said:Turnips, rapes and kale all mature and are preferred at different times, and that is their usefulness. Just because a plant is hit first doesn't mean it is "better." Some plants are not palatable until a specific stage of growth and the best food plot plan is to have plants growing that all hit periods of palatability at different times.
For example, deer will often not touch Iron and Clay peas until they are near maturity, then they wipe them out in short order, but I don't think many will say Iron and Clay peas aren't a good food plot plant.
