    Grassland soils – activate soil life and maintain quality

    The ÖAG organic specialist group developed three new pieces of information on the topic of “grassland soils”.

    Soil fertility is largely determined by the biological activity in the soil. In order to maintain or increase soil fertility in the long term, soil life must above all be promoted. This requires knowledge about growth-promoting living conditions for soil organisms.

    The three-part ÖAG information from the ÖAG “Organic Agriculture” specialist group provides valuable recommendations and tips on how soil life on permanent grassland areas can be sustainably activated and promoted.

    • Part 1 with the importance of soil life for healthy soil (soil organisms, fungi, small animals, etc.).
    • In Part 2, the habitat of soil organisms in soils under permanent grassland is considered.
    • In part 3, are for optimizing nutrient cycles in the grassland ecosystem.

    The 12-16 page color brochures summarize the current knowledge on the sustainable management of grassland soils in an easy-to-read form.
    Slide sets on the subject area for teaching and consulting are being prepared for the Bio-Institut's homepage: www.raumberg-gumpenstein.at/bio-news
