Effect of Chemical and Organic Fertilisation on Common Chicory (Cichorium intybus L.) in the First Vegetation Year
Chicory (Cichorium intybus L.) has a series of important quality features due to both its human food value and to its animal feed value. As animal feed, the nutrient value of chicory is give mainly by its high content of organic substances which makes it a competitor of perennial fodder legumes. The...

Summary: | Chicory (Cichorium intybus L.) has a series of important quality features due to both its human food value and to its animal feed value. As animal feed, the nutrient value of chicory is give mainly by its high content of organic substances which makes it a competitor of perennial fodder legumes. The paper presents the impact if fertilisation with chemical fertilisers (N50-100) and with manure (20-40 t/ha) on dry matter production in chicory in the first vegetation year. |
