Grassland Signals is an unparalleled practical guide that supports farmers in making even better use of their grassland. It provides new insights in order to improve the growth and quality of your grass, allowing for greater returns from grasslands. The production and quality of crops vary strongly. What causes these differences?
The book takes the reader through the seasons by posing three basic questions:
What am I seeing?
What does this mean?
What should I do?
For example:
Plants often function as an indicator; the presence of much annual meadow grass may be an indication of excessive grazing pressure.
