Sowed mixtures | Description |
|---|---|
| Conventional mixture of four grass species used for grassland establishment |
| Four grass species (the same used in the G mixture), along with two clover species |
| A mixture of 37 plant species typically occurring in seminatural grasslands. Rieger-Hofmann GmbH distributes the specialized seed mixture, which is produced using seed mixtures of native species with a controlled geographical origin |
| Fresh hay was collected at the Experimental Station of Wrocław University of Environmental and Life Sciences in Radomierz (50°54ʹ15.1″N, 15°53ʹ58.8″E), Silesia, Poland, Central Europe. The station is located in the sub-mountain area, Kaczawskie Mountains. The pastures are grazed for the entire growing season, and rotation pasturage is used, with sporadic mowing.
