[soil preparation and fertilization]

Because the chicory seed is small (the weight of a thousand seeds is 0.96 grams), the soil surface should be fine and flat on the basis of deep ploughing, and 2500 to 3000 kg of barnyard manure per mu should be applied while ploughing the land.

[sowing]

① sowing time: chicory is perennial, so the sowing time is not limited by the season. Generally, it can be sowed from April to October, and can be sowed above 5 degrees Celsius.

② sowing rate: chicory seeds are small, the general sowing rate is 400g ~ 500g per mu, the transplanting rate is 100g ~ 150g per mu, and the sowing depth is 1cm ~ 2cm.

③ sowing method: sowing, strip sowing or seedling transplanting. If raising seedlings and transplanting, generally transplanting at 3-4 leaflets, the distance between rows and plants is 15 cm × 15 cm square. When sowing, mix the seeds and fine sandy soil and increase the volume to ensure the uniform sowing of the seeds. After sowing, watering or proper irrigation to maintain a certain moisture of the soil, generally 4-5 days to produce seedlings.

[field management]

① weed control: the seedling growth rate is slow, in order to prevent the harm of weeds, can be used to remove Monocotyledon herbicides spray, when chicory grows, there is generally no weed harm.

② watering and fertilization: chicory is a kind of leaf vegetable feed, which has a high demand for water and fertilizer. One month after seedling emergence and after each cutting, quick-acting fertilizer is applied in time to ensure rapid regeneration.

③ timely cutting use: generally, the plants can be cut when the height reaches 50 cm, and the stubble is about 5 cm, which should not be too high or too low, and can be cut every 30 days.
