Project Title

Variety-rich undersown mixtures in oat cultivation - Oat meadows

Project description

Haferwiesen is investigating how diverse undersown seed mixtures can have a positive effect on oat cultivation. Since oats influence the development of many plants through their root exudates, the project is researching which combinations of oats and undersown seeds are particularly well suited for stable, humus-forming, and biodiversity-promoting crops. The aim is to improve soil fertility, water storage capacity, and climate adaptation while developing practical cultivation recommendations for agricultural businesses.
