Antler Chicory
Antler Chicory is an excellent addition to either livestock pasture mixes or wild plots. It is drought tolerant and will provide grazing even when it becomes reproductive. If the plant makes seed in wild life plots, the upland birds will readily feed on the seed. If it makes seed in any application it will make a thicker stand the following season. It will establish under moderate shade the following spring.
In trials, Antler will produce 11-13% more forage than Browtine Chicory.
