Description de la mesure

Increase fodder autonomy through diversification, double end crops and other techniques

Commentaires sur la durabilité

Increasing fodder autonomy means decreasing fodder purchase dependency and facing high costs (as in Mediterranean conditions fodder prices raise more than other crops). This can be achieved in several ways: by increasing the number of fodder crops cultivated, by using double-end crops, by producing fodder in rainfed plots (alfalfa) and not only on irrigated land, by improving silage conditions, etc.
