    Grassland management and cultural landscape

    The AgroMet-Monitor project brings together various research approaches on the topic of climate and climate change and their relevance for agriculture. In four sub-areas, changes in yields, especially those in grassland, vegetation duration and water supply for agricultural land were calculated based on long-term weather data and climate scenarios.

    The results available are time series over several decades to describe the growing season (start, end and duration), soil water conditions, the occurrence of dry periods and grassland yields. The maps provided show risk regions for future negative developments in climatic conditions and can be used for strategic decisions or for the development of regional adaptation strategies in agriculture.
