Chicory

Chicory is a deep-rooted perennial that continues producing high-quality forage when summer heat, dry weather, and heavy browsing slow other food plot options.
 
Ideal for perennial food plots and destination feeding areas where dependable summer forage is essential. Chicory produces highly digestible, protein-rich forage while its deep root system helps maintain growth through challenging growing conditions.
