Farmer planted cotton. How will the deer use cotton fields? First time hunting land planted in cotton.
You haven't ever lived to you have to drag one out of a dried/picked cotton patch, especially if it is warm enough you have on short sleeves.
Bucks love cotton fields, they feel like they are safe in them! I have killed a lot of good bucks in cotton fields. Also the farmer will spread cover crop (wheat, clover, rye, oats) in early September so by the time they cut the stalks you will have a pretty green field.

Oh no! If you ask the big farmer ..... worst year ever.....claiming insurance on lots of it! A certain amount of the crop is almost guaranteed with a thunderstorm or big rain storm
There is nobody that comes back and checks the crop that insurance paid for.....so pick it and keep rolling....not right but it is the way of the farm. Leave a little in the field and pick the rest.....lt would suck to see farming die in the eastern part of the state as it has in the central part. All we grow now is hay!
I am a pretty good sized farmer and I can tell you that this statement is BS. This would lead to prison time and being denied crop insurance coverage in the futureOh no!
