Through site-adapted management to create climate-friendly grassland
With more than 1.3 million hectares, grassland is by far the most important crop in Austria. The management options in grassland are significantly influenced by the location factors soil and climate. The aim of site-adapted management is not to achieve short-term maximum yields through external inputs, but rather to ensure yields and feed quality at a stable level in the long term in the spirit of the circular economy.
To do this, it is necessary to find a balance between use, fertilization and stock management and to adapt to the circumstances. Dr. Dr. talks about this and further information about cutting heights, rest periods, as well as grassland plowing and dry summers. Andreas Steinwidder with DI Andreas Klingler in this podcast.
