Climate change and impact on European grasslands
Original language description
Hay meadows are of high importance for European agriculture in temperate and humid regions and occupy a large proportion of the landscape (13.2% of the total area or 568 042 km2 within the EU 27) (EUROSTAT 2010). Permanent grasslands are defined in the EU as agricultural surfaces that are under land use for several, usually more than five, consecutive years and are covered by herbaceous forage crops, either naturally (through self-seeding) or through cultivation (sowing). They are not included in the crop rotation scheme on the agricultural holding and can be either managed as pastures with grazing livestock or through mowing for hay and silage. Such grasslands are dominated usually by only a few key species (Beierkuhnlein et al., 2011). Proportion andacreage of agriculture land used as grasslands however varies greatly over the EU depending primarily on the climate and soil conditions of the given region. Distribution of grassland areas over various climates is documented by Table 1
