nw NC | Deer. They start feeding on corn here at 3-4 leaves. Doing some now at waist high. When ear shoots emerge they walk the perimeter rows and bite off the new ear shoot or break over the stalk at the ear leaving the stalk hanging. As ears continue to fill, they continue their devastation. I chop all my corn for silage now but a few years ago I had some for grain harvest. The deer continued feeding on dry ears until I harvested the corn. Any stalks that fell over or ears had dropped off to the ground, the deer cleaned up every kernel through the winter. Combine broke down with about a half acre left to harvest. Weather set in and that was the end of harvesting. In a month there was not an ear with a kernel on it left in the field. I detest deer!

What's biting my corn in two?
