Dear Brad 
I'm afraid I can't help you very much with this one as it's not really my 
area of expertise.  Here's an article I found on the web that you might 
find interesting  http://www.britannica.com/bcom/magazine/article/0,5744,330646,00.html .

Personally I think it would be a better idea to encourage some 
(semi-)natural habitat on your property as opposed to deliberately planting 
a crop.  That way you'll encourage insects, birds and small mammals as well 
as the charismatic deer and wild turkeys.  Make sure you plant native 
plants. 

Best wishes,
Yvonne
