Alfalfa can be a good food plot for deer because it provides the necessary nutrients and is highly palatable, attracting deer to your area. Nevertheless, the success of making the deer visit your site often depends on the quality of your alfalfa food plot. Although Alfalfa is palatable to deer, the frequency of deer visiting your food plot can still vary significantly on its quality. For instance, if you compare standard hay alfalfas to Whitetail Institute’s alfalfa forage, you may notice that the latter’s quality makes it a more captivating food plot than the former. Aside from quality, it is advisable to do a soil test before planting alfalfas by adding lime and fertilizer as recommended for better results.
