I’m a fan of putting on a buffet in larger plots. Presently, we give them the choice of a corn/bean mix, a mix of rape, radish and turnips, a mix of rutabagas/Winfred brassicas/beets, oats/rye, and clover/chicory. The deer I’ll dig through a foot of snow for the grains, less for the clover/chicory. They’ll work the brassicas through feet of snow, and corn/beans if necessary. Deer will typically cycle through all of the plots in the evening. I’m not a fan of radish monocultures. While the tops are devoured, the tubers turn to mush far to early (usually by end of November with our cold weather) and many are not consumed. Just my .02.
