Cabin Fever Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 Is it true that once farmers spray liquid manure on ag fields as fertilizer, the deer stop feeding there? The adjoining property just cut the corn 2 days ago and I was happy to see all the corn left on the ground. I walked in today and noticed they recently sprayed the field with liquid manure. I’ve hear the deer will no longer feed in the field once this happens and I certainly can’t blame them. True?

Overtkill Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 I have seen them back in the same field after being sprayed takes about a week. They moved to next field over still stayed in area. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

46rkl Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 I’ve encountered this several times over the years and my experience has been that a moderate rain falls and the deer are right back in these fields. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mlammerhirt Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 Had it happen last year and the deer were gone.....didn't hunt the property enough to tell when they came back. But it was sprayed right before Halloween and killed me seeing any deer being harassed in that open field for the next 10 days of prime seeking phase.Sent from my SM-A716V using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok, cool! I’ll just consider it cover scent until we get that good rain! LOLSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
