Grow in the miscellaneous section of your rotation.
Parsnips do well in fairly rich soil which has been well cultivated, but not freshly manured, and is not stony. This means there is less chance of the roots forking.
Traditionally sown from February, parsnips do better when the soil has warmed up a little and can be sown until May. Sow directly into the growing site. Make rows 2 cm deep and 30 cm apart and sow 2 or 3 seeds every 15 cm or so.

If more than one germinates thin to leave just one seedling. Parsnip can be slow and erratic to germinate, they do best planted later in warmer soils.
