Deep Soil Needed for Licorice Growth at Pontefract
In Pontefract the licorice plant, from the pea and bean family, requires unusually deep soil as its root can exceed six feet. The crop is slow to mature, with only eight to ten growers remaining. The root yields a medicinal glycyrrhizin and is processed into a sugary mass, then formed into strings by workers, with 600 people employed locally.
