• Deep taproot helps make it drought tolerant• Oasis has high Lactocin making it more
persistent in years 2+ in Mississippi • Improved disease resistance and persistence
over other chicory varieties• Oasis averaged over 2.5 pounds per head per
day gain on 600 pound steers and heifers • at MSU, with an average stocking rate of 7.8
head per acre in spring and summer months.• Crude Protein between 20-25%• 6-7 tons average annual yield

According to Dr. John Andrae (Clemson University), cattle grazing Oasis Chicory paddocks are
consuming less minerals and showing similar weight gains than cattle grazing alfalfa.
