Grassland Farming

In mountainous regions, pastures and meadows not only offer healthy feed for animals but also serve as a reservoir for rare plants and animals – not to mention a relaxing retreat for human beings. Cultivation techniques must be chosen that allow these meadows to remain in as natural a state as possible.

  • Research on the productivity of different types of grasses, their quality as fodder, and appropriate cultivation methods
  • Research on storage, preparation and distribution of farmyard manure
  • Experimentation with grass and clover varieties, as well as mixtures for balanced plant stocks
  • Research on fodder conservation
  • Measures to improve weed-infested Alpine pastures
