Rackmaster® Chicory is high quality, high protein and high yielding forage for deer and other wildlife. Rackmaster chicory has been selected for its high yields, improved
cool season growth and improved persistence. Chicory can produce up to 6 tons of dry matter forage per acre per year with protein levels over 30% and digestibility of the new leaves up to 90 Through its deep taproot, chicory has the ability to take minerals from deep in the soil and make them more available in its leaves. Increased potassium, calcium, magnesium, sulfur, zinc and sodium make chicory irresistible to whitetail deer. Chicory is a highly preferred, grazing tolerant plant that has good drought resistance. Because it grows more actively during the warm season months, Chicory is a good companion plant to grow with white clovers like Durana and Patriot.
