Innovative strategies for resource-saving and resilient grassland management (KUHproKLIMA)
The aim of this project is to test an holistic pasture management ("Holistic Planned Grazing" according to A. Savory) and the targeted improvement of soil life. Both measures support a high level of biodiversity, structural and utilization diversity. In addition, by increasing the natural biological processes both work volumes and emissions and further operating costs shall be reduced.
By integrating dairy farms with different operations, KUHproKLIMA presents various starting conditions and defines needs and personal operating goals in a context-related manner. Comprehensive monitoring will be used to record changes and progress with regard to the pasture ecosystems over the entire duration of the project. Recommendations for practice will be derived from the results of the project. A best practice guide will be developed.
In the KUHproKLIMA project, farmers and scientists worked together to develop strategies that can contribute to stabilizing important ecosystem processes in grasslands by means of appropriately adapted grazing regarding to climate change. Innovative measures, not yet applied in the pre-alpine region, were combined with each other and applied and tested site-adapted on the participating farms. A particular focus was to better understand the influence of the grazing cow on soil life, soil carbon and plant populations. In addition to knowledge transfer, the use of compost extract was investigated on various test plots. In the second step, appropriate management proposals were derived from all the trials and then implemented. Finally, the aim was to compile the knowledge and experience gained in a comprehensive guide.
