What different species will eat is determined, IMO, very much by the weather. Doves here feed on many different seeds, both wild and planted. Sunflower, corn, peanut, and wheat are favorites among the cultivated crops. The colder the temps the more doves will feed upon the high fat crops, such as peanuts. Have never seen doves actively feeding on soybeans, with one exception .............. when it snows here, for some unexplained reason, doves are attracted to harvested soybean fields.
