      Puna II perennial chicory is the superior choice of chicory when seeking a broad-leaved forage crop as part of a mixed sward with grass and clover or grown alone in a pure stand. It can boost growth rates and productivity to finish stock earlier. This perennial variety bred in New Zealand, gives greater persistency lasting 2-5 years, longer than the short-lived common chicory.

      • Long persistency of 2-5 years
      • Good compatibility with perennial ryegrass
      • Capable of producing 10 tonnes dry matter/ha/year
