Description
In the medium-altitude mountains of the GDR, many meadows cannot be utilized for intensive forage production. Because of their importance for recreation, game feeding and nature conservation, general afforestation is not possible. A model is presented that allows for every meadow to choose between intensive utilization, afforestation, and reservation for other social needs. Management methods for meadows not suitable for intensive utilization, especially the employment of herbicides, are discussed.
