摘要

Cichorium intybus belongs to Compositae family,Chicory genera perennial herb,which is a cold‐resistant, drought‐ resistant, high yielding and good‐quality forage crop ( N.VanStallen,2005).Nutritient contentt and digestibility of different growth stages of Cichorium intybusv cultivated in Hohhot have been studied in this paper.The objective was to provide evidences for reviewing the nutritive values and confirming the best utilization stage
