Some plants grow in the spring and summer and offer high-quality forage that helps antler growth. Others, will help carry deer through lean times, but work more as attractants and are great for hunting over. Here's a look at various plants and their primary uses:

• White Clover: All-purpose plant that provides nutrition in the summer and forage in the fall and winter. Excellent hunting potential.
• Brassicas (rape, canola, kale and broccoli are in the brassica family): Primarily hunting.
• Wheat: Planted in the fall, it serves mostly as an attractant in the fall and winter. Excellent for hunting.
• Alfalfa: Good summer nutrition and also favored in the fall and winter. Excellent hunting.
• Iron peas: Great for nutrition.
• Winter peas: Good cold-weather forage and good for hunting.
• Soybeans: Excellent summer forage with lots of protein. Also a very good early-season hunting plant.
• Oats and rye: Similar to wheat.
• Corn: Good for hunting but generally tough to grow.
