Chicory has many benefits as part of a seed mix. Such as its deep tap roots that break through compacted layers, improving soil structure, aeration and water infiltration.
As a result of the deep root structure Chicory can access nutrients below that of the surrounding plants, this both prevents nutrient leaching and can bring nutrients such as Potassium, Calcium, Magnesium, Zinc and Sodium closer to the surface where they can be absorbed by surrounding plants.
