SUPER-G synthesis report & associated data - D3.6 Synergies & Tradeoffs

A series of co-innovation workshops within 23 farm networks helped to identify PG management options, innovations, and technologies to trial on commercial and experimental farms before being road tested and demonstrated on a selection of pilot farms. A series of over 40 experiments were conducted on commercial and research farms across the biogeographic regions on a wide range of topics. 

The field trials and experiments have involved detailed integrated assessments on farms or permanent grassland (PG) areas to investigate the synergies and trade-offs between productivity, biodiversity, and delivery of other selected ecosystem services (ES). 

The investigations were placed into five overarching themes:1. New Grassland Species / Diverse Species Swards2. Precision Grassland Management3. Nutrient Management4. Agri-Environment Options5. Miscellaneous
