Does a food plot constitute "supplemental" feeding and would it be considered year-round?

If so, anyone with a food plot that is used by wildlife throughout the year would have an ongoing supplemental feeding program.

The DCNR has stated repeatedly for years that food plots are preferred over bait because they provide extra nutrition not only for deer but for multiple wildlife species including game and non-game animals along with songbirds and raptors.

It would be, IMO, difficult for anyone to argue that a food plot -- even one that is lightly maintained but still provides some additional sustenance to wildlife in the 'off-season' from deer hunting -- is not a supplemental feeding source and, therefore, is considered as such as part of a year-round program.
