Foodplots are just supplemental for deer. Deer are browsers, not grazers. Browse is what makes them prefer one area over another. Find your browse thin it, fertilize it. They prefer new growth. Fertilizer gives it better flavor, besides just making it grow. Deer in different areas prefer different foods. Spend a little time and learn what the ones in your area prefer.
Also, turnip are good, but they usually don't get hit until after the first or second frost, that when they turn sweet.
