Brush Hog Standing Corn

My local CO said no brushhogging corn allowed, he would consider it baiting. Know your local officer, seems like it makes a difference, shouldn't but it does. Law is supposed to be the law..

I must add to the above comment, my local CO has always been polite, very helpful, replied to questions quickly (even if I don't like his answer lol), has responded to poaching quickly.. etc. So other than us disagreeing about brushhogging corn, I'd rate local CO's fairly high.

I like our local warden and he has responded to trespass complaints for me.

He and I have spent plenty of time visiting about deer numbers and I do not want to cause him any trouble.

Here's what I've been wondering the last few days. Farmers leaving strips of corn so they can be driven for deer...is that a "normal agricultural practice"?

It is if the corn is left 100% standing for a wildlife foodplot. Once the farmer chooses to leave it standing then the food plot rules would be in affect.
