If anyone really wants to help deer out during the winter, they have some very good food plots for deer available. If you have the land just a 1/4 acre food plot will be the enough. 1/2 acre would be better.
You want the kind that stays green all winter like clover, oats, alfalfa etc. They have several mixtures available now days. Green leafy browse is much better for deer than sticks or woody browse.
In the long run it is much more cost effective making a food plot than putting out corn for half the year. And corn is about 6% protein compared to over 30% protein for some of the food plots.
