Spring preparation on our grasslands

Spring preparation on our grasslands

The grasslands must not only be dense, it must also be alive. Nowadays, the main role belongs to modern tools, and grass management can be carried out in a nature-friendly way. Always keep in mind: the grasslands is primarily a habitat! The species living in there, are important participants in the ecological balance, so not only they, but also the crop yield is vulnerable. Their preservation is therefore the common goal of nature conservation and the farmer.

„Repetition is the mother of knowledge”, and it is no different when following the rules of grassland management. This is especially relevant now that the astronomical spring has begun (03.20), the grasslands are freshening up, and the cattle can soon go to pasture.

In order to understand the Hungarian rules, the staff of the Grassland Conservation Management Advisory Service and the Hortobágy National Park Administration prepared a short summary for Hungarian farmers especially for the grassland owners.
