Would a clover or Eagle Seed forage soybeans be a better choice to plant in a plot on my 25 acres?

I have right at 25 acres do you think a clover food plot or eagles seed beans would benefit better? its all hard woods with no food around.

 

William,

If there are a lot of deer in the area and the plot size is relatively small than clover may be a better choice.  However, if the plot size will allow you to plant enough soybeans that the local deer herd doesn’t destroy then rapidly soybeans will provide better quality forage, be easier to maintain, and provide food during more months throughout the year!  Deer will consume the soybean forage all summer and the pods during the winter!
