I would tend to be conservative to start - you can always get more aggressive as the season goes on, but not possible to go from aggressive to conservative - the damage is already done.

What types of changes should I expect when the soy and corn come down?

They won't be in the middle of the field but if there are waterways, ditches, or areas of the field where grass mixes with corn (most common around edges and field corners) they'll use it. Not sure when your season comes in but be careful walking the edge of that corn field to check cameras, hang stands, etc. I've seen them bed 10 to 20 yards from those woodlots in the corn facing the field edge to watch for danger. Set up a trail camera along a field edge and you'll notice all types of animals (including predators) use it as a travel corridor. Those bucks want to monitor that while their bedded, hence the reason for bedding close to the edge. less
