In the full pasture system, dairy farms try to implement a "low-input or low-cost" strategy through efficient and cost-effective use of pasture feed. There is no supplementary feeding in the full pasture season and the aim is to achieve a high milk yield per hectare of pasture
The aim of the project is to comprehensively compare the milk production potential per unit area of ​​the full pasture or stable feeding systems in the mountainous area of ​​Austria over two growing seasons under the same conditions (same fodder area, same farm) .
