Ben,
Our plots stay wet just like you're talking about. We have luck with normal food plantings. Last year we started planting WMS Deer Magnet with 25 lbs/acre of 227 Coker Oats and top sown with turnips. We had a great stand last year. We will continue to use this recipe.
Call me if you want to talk more in depth.

Standing water or just wet soil? I don't think there is any cereal grain that will grow in completely saturated soil that stays that way.
Why not go in now and plow a ditch through the plot so it will drain? Get a transit, find the lowest path and plow a ditch with turning plow.
If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land. 2 Chronicles 7:14

Why not go in now and plow a ditch through the plot so it will drain? Get a transit, find the lowest path and plow a ditch with turning plow. It's the sort of area near a big creek where the water table is only a few feet below the ground in summer and rises in the winter. We've tried to dig spots for fruit trees and it's like trying to dig a hole in the sand too close to the ocean, it just slowly fills in with water. It's not a swamp or anything, just a low lying area with thick poorly drained soils.

Have you tried Ladino Clover ?
"Cull" is just another four letter word...
