In order to receive payments, the grass must be harvested and harvested. Do not crush!
One of the conditions for receiving aid payments on grassland areas is the proper management and management of land. The Rural Support Service recalls that the grassland must not only be harvested but also harvested. If the grassland is grazed, if the grassland is insufficient, it must be allowed.
The grassland must not be shredded or the grass allowed to be left low on the field. In the event of non-compliance with the condition, the payments of the area concerned will not be granted and the penalty payment will be applied, i.e. the payment will be reduced.
If the crushed and crushed grass is left on the field, the plants with crushed biomass receive a large amount of nutrients which can significantly reduce vegetation and reduce the biodiversity of the grassland. On the other hand, if the grassland is carried out late, at the end of the vegetation season, such grass is a layer of peel which not only reduces biodiversity but also creates a risk of increased fire hazard in the spring. If the grassland is in pallets, the harvested and left biomass may be removed during the pallets, but the water can be sanctioned in a single form, such as river curves, thereby contributing to their growth.
It is also important to respect deadlines. 15 August is the last date on which the grassland applied for must be grazed or harvested and harvested. The last date of grazing or harvesting and harvesting of grassland found to be biologically valuable or grassland habitats of EU importance or bird habitats (grassland OF EU significance) shall be used in beekeeping for nectar harvesting and for the collection of herbal plants, shall be 15 September.
If the grass is harvested from the field in rolls, it should be recalled that the rolls must be removed from the field until the next farming season. If they are left on the field, the area where they are located cannot be received.
