THis should answer your question. For anyone with experience farming you will know the difference immediately. The concentration of food in a small area is what causes deer to come to that area to feed. In a field, you typically don't get those concentrations, grain is spread out over a large area. A small patch of clover (biologic as you stated) is not going to be as appealing as a small patch of corn. It simply doesn't have the nutritional value as the same amount of corn. Put a little hay and a little corn in from of some cattle and see what gets eaten first.
So let me make sure I understand, a field of corn contains very little food, but a feeder that puts out 1 lb of corn is concentrated.
A 6 foot circle of corn is concentrated, but a 1/2 acre food plot of peas, wheat, and oats specifically planted to attract deer isn't attractive enough to bring a deer in.
We used to have a place roughly an hour North of these guys (La Salle County), and the brush was next to impenetrable for a human. Heck, even the deer had mesquite thorns in them when skinned out. Spot and stalk simply doesn't exist in alot of these places, and I never heard of pass shooting deer.
