Swamp cat, I’ve got the same situation as you have. Can’t grow corn because of hogs. I’ve got plenty of clover already as well as brassicas and small grains in other food plots. I was looking at something to replace the corn and at the same time was not too attractive to hogs. I’ve planted both WGF milo and regular Ag milo (Dekalb). I prefer the Ag milo. Yields better and also some varieties are resistant to sugarcane aphids which is important in my area. Deer readily eat the grain after it matures. But it usually doesn’t last very long before it’s all gone. I have had ale hog issues after planting but so far not after it has grown and matured. This year I experimented with mixing Egyptian wheat with the milo to government it more structure and also provide cover. So far I like what I see. The Egyptian wheat seed heads are lasting longer since they are above the browse line. I’m hoping this mix will be beneficial for turkeys and ducks. Here is a picture of what it looks like. I need to make some adjustments on my seeding rate as well as my mix ratio.
