Our focus in this area is fruit and viticulture. Due to the steep slopes that are often exposed to the south, enormous erosion damage can occur if there is a lack of ground cover. Permanent greenery adapted to the location improves the accessibility of the facilities, the soil structure and biological activity in the soil and is of course an important erosion protection measure. What is crucial is the right seed mix, so that e.g. B. on steep slopes the greenery does not become slippery when wet or there is no competition for water and nutrients on dry sites. In practice, these objectives are very often not achieved. The question of whether poor use of greening technology, a seed mixture that is not suitable for the location, climate and farming conditions, or errors in maintaining the greenery are responsible for the failure is usually not so easy to answer. With overseeding devices, such as those developed for planting and reseeding grassland stands, permanent greenery can also be established in fruit cultivation according to the current state of the art. Regular reseeding of such stands helps to close gaps and maintain a high proportion of desired species and varieties in the vegetation, even under heavy stress. Modern greening mixtures are primarily composed of grass and turf varieties. They are resistant to mechanical stress, regenerative, have low biomass production and exert little competition for water and nutrients. If biodiversity is to be increased in addition to the management-relevant properties of the vegetation, various herbs can also be established. However, it is recommended to sow these with a divided seed box between the lanes so as not to damage them when crossing.
