I have a place where I can shed hunt but I can't hunt on because the landowner hunts. Most of his agriculture fields were drilled in radishes this past fall. Well last week I shed hunted it for the first time. On any given night you can see 50+ deer in his fields feeding on radishes. In front of one of his stands he planted some turnips for a foodplot. As you can see in the pics the deer never even touched the turnips but have devoured the radishes down to the ground. The little brown patch in the first pic is the turnips and the rest of the field are radishes. The big radish next to my boot is the only one I could find in the field that wasn't eaten on. Obviously deer prefer the radishes over the turnips, I know what I'm planting next year. I think you will be amazed how the deer pour into the fields to eat them.

The deer were eating the tops off of the radishes late December/Jan in the field behind the house. Other than that they left them alone.
