Puna Chicory

  • Perennial tap-rooted herb for excellent grazing or silage
  • Outstanding animal performance
  • Good drought and pest resistance
  • Very high summer productivity
  • Proven milk production and liveweight benefits

A highly digestible perennial herb which is mineral rich and palatable to all livestock types. Grasslands PUNA chicory is one of the most exciting forage options available today with the ability to perform on farms in the temperate and tropical regions of Australia. PUNA is a broadleafed perennial herb with an extensive tap root which aids persistence, as well as contributing to the forage’s high mineral content due to its uptake ability.

Puna II Chicory

“Superfeed….faster”

  • Highest chicory dry matter production
  • A true perennial with good persistence
  • Faster re-growth after grazing or cutting
  • Semi-erect for better utilisation than Puna

Best suited to specialist lamb finishing feed where an extended growing season to Puna is required. Grasslands PUNA II was bred from true perennial chicory parents under grazing evaluations, and released after Australian trials confirmed its high dry matter production, improved re-growth after grazing, and good persistence.
