    Flower meadow and dock?

    This project aims to develop instructions for implementing graduated meadow construction at the farm level for advice and for interested farm managers. Until now, this concept, which implements a meaningful connection between feed quality and biodiversity, was mainly anchored in theory and implementation on farms was inadequate. With model farms set up in the project, the concept of graduated meadow construction is intended to be better introduced to businesses.

    The pilot project for a new method of biological dock regulation is intended to test the innovative dock control measure with dock wing caterpillars in the field. This project is intended to examine the possibility of this method in the Eastern Alpine region for the first time.
