"Weak root yield, normal diameter"
This year's chicory root harvest got off to a rather slow start, according to grower Joseph Münch from Grafschaft-Gelsdorf. "The wet May meant we couldn't prepare any dams, which is why the whole thing was delayed until the beginning of June. After that, we had a long dry phase, during which the plants' emergence was unfortunately not optimal and we had to water them intensively."
