Description
A broad-leafed, cool-season perennial herb or forb, and is a highly nutritional crop that is actually part of the Sunflower family. Chicory has a relatively deep taproot that allows for some drought tolerance and it produces leafy growth for forage.
Adaptation:
Chicory is suited to well or moderately-well drained soils, if compaction is not a problem. Chicory prefers soil with moderate to high fertility, and a pH of 5.5 or greater. Soils that are waterlogged or heavy clay tend to limit the stand life of Chicory. This forage crop can be grown throughout the country.
