Where are you located and how many total acres of beans do you have?

Is that the only bean field you have? And, is that the only "agriculture" around? Basically, what are the deer eating now? Natural veg., or is there beans planted around you?

No real ag for miles. As far as I know none of my neighbors have soybeans but my south neighbor did plant 4-5 acres of ICPeas. He does feed around 10 tons of corn/ protein a year and keeps his place burned.we have a pretty good mix of various age planted pines and hardwood hills and creek bottom, so there is a pretty good amount of natural food.

if you have many deer my bet is it gets wiped out shortly after fence removal, but i hope im wrong, i have high density here so it might be diffrent , but i have never found a soybean that could keep up with the deer appetite, it is usually ok for a while but when they turn on them they turn hard, my neighbor has 300 acres in beans, and only gets to harvest about 100 acres of them, ive had better luck with iron and clay peas, seems to have better drought tolerance and browse tolerance, but that plot sure looks good now, and even if they wipe it out quickly thats alot of good nutrition going into them and id keep it up, looks great.

This has been an experiment for me and it will be interesting to see what happens when the fence comes down. I do plan on getting them at least chest high before I do that. Hopefully since they are forage beans they can keep up.

The beans should be able to keep up on pressure after another week or two. If you want them to produce beans you will have to wait to pull the fence down. The whole purpose of the beans is to feed your deer thought. Just a recommendation but think about removing the fence from a portion of the beans allowing them to be eaten all summer and protect a portion to produce beans, only if you intend on leaving them all winter of course.

My simple suggestion would be to allow the deer in about 2 acres of the beans and save 1 acre for bean production. You can also use that to your advantage come bow season by removing a portion of the fence, creating a small bottle neck to hunt.

I guess great minds think alike. I was going to plant corn in the 3 AC I have prepped immediately north of the beans but I think it has got too late. I have been wanting to grow Sunflowers but it won,t happen without protection. So the plan, maybe, is to move the fence north to encompass an acre or so of the other plot and put that in Sunflowers and plant the rest in peas, sorhum and whatever.This would place the unprotected beans right at a creek crossing.
