Pennington Rackmaster Chickory

Pennington Rackmaster Chicory is a new mixture of perennial chicory developed for the US by breeders in New Zealand. This chicory seed produces a high yield selection of forage for wildlife and deer, and high protein and quality. Choice has been chosen for its enhanced cool season growth, improved persistence and high yields. Can create up to six tons of dry matter forage per year per acre with up to 32% protein levels and up to 90% - 95% digestibility of the new leaves. With its deep taproot, Chicory deep taproots give it the capability to provide more available minerals in the leaves. Increased amounts of calcium, potassium, sulfur, magnesium, sodium, and zinc makes the leaves of Chicory irresistible to whitetail deer. Chicory has good resistance to drought and is a highly favored, tolerant to grazing plant.
