Variety performance review
BioLogic Maximum Corn (food plot) in the Upper Southeast.
- Good
- BioLogic / Mossy Oak BioLogic
- Approx. 110 RM
Regional strengths
Food plot corn in the Upper Southeast pulls hard during the early bow season when whitetail bucks are still on summer-pattern food sources. Pairs well with adjacent clover plots for diversified attraction.
Regional weaknesses
Southern rust pressure in wet years can wipe out a food plot corn stand quickly — variety-specific rust ratings on food plot seed are often not published. Raccoon and feral hog pressure in Tennessee and Kentucky lowlands can reduce standing corn faster than deer browse.

Farmer notes
Anecdotal reports from KY/TN food plotters suggest mixed standing-corn performance vs. brassica + clover systems for late-season attraction.
