Similar to D29, but including a translation into the 7 languages of the consortium. This material will be transferred to the national grassland associations, in order to maximise the impact for the national farmers.

Updated versions of Encyclopedia pratensis including information from farmers groups (M24)

Encyclopedia pratensis is a website created in a previous EU project. Knowledge built by the farmers groups will be used to enrich this existing system.

100 practice abstracts and associated materials to be downloaded in English onto the EIP-AGRI service point (Complete set of practice abstracts)

"The scanning of the various case studies will lead to the identification and description of 100 grassland management practices, considered to be the most innovative according to the consortium. For these practices, an abstract will be prepared and associated materials (video clips, powerpoint presentation, sheets,…) will be produced. In this deliverable, they will be produced in English to be downloaded in English onto the EIP-Agri service point. The resulting innovative knowledge and easy accessible end-user material from this project should feed into the EIP-AGRI website for broad dissemination. The end-user material to be produced contains a substantial number of outcomes/recommendations for practitioners in the EIP common format. This includes the characteristics of the project (in particular e.g. contact details of partners, etc) and"" practice abstracts"". A full package of practice abstracts is needed for the project, containing all the outcomes/recommendations which are ready for practice. A ""practice abstract"" is a short summary of around 1000-1500 characters (word count – no spaces; see below) which describes a main information/recommendation/practice that can serve the end-users in their daily practice. The guidance and format (Excel) to be followed for these practice abstracts, as well as some explanatory text is available on the EIP-AGRI web site (http://ec.europa.eu/eip/agriculture/en/content/eip-agri-common-format). • Short summary for practitioners (1000-1500 characters, word count – no spaces). This summary should at least contain the following information: − Main results/outcomes of the activity (expected or final) − The main practical recommendation(s): what would be the main added value/benefit/opportunities to the end-user if the generated knowledge is implemented? How can the practitioner make use of the results? This summary should be presented as interesting as possible for farmers/end-users, using a direct and easy understandable language and pointing out entrepreneurial elements which are particularly relevant and attractive for practitioners (e.g. related to costs, application methods etc). Research oriented aspects or summaries of the project activities which do not help the understanding of the practice itself should be avoided. "

Updated versions of Encyclopedia pratensis including information from farmers groups (M36)

Encyclopedia pratensis is a website created in a previous EU project. Knowledge built by the farmers groups will be used to enrich this existing system.

Identification of grassland parameters most useful for farmers and dissemination through Twitter/Facebook

To better reach the farmers with information related to grasslands, it is important to identify the traits (parameters) they are looking for and how they try to get access to it on social networks. Once this is known, it is easy to inject the new information under the right format in the right pipelines.

Set of 5 sample practice abstracts and associated materials to be downloaded in English onto the EIP-AGRI service point (First set of practice abstracts)

"In the end of the project, the scanning of the various case studies will lead to the identification and description of 100 grassland management practices, considered to be the most innovative according to the consortium. However, in M18 a set of 5 sample practice abstracts will be compiled. For these practices, an abstract will be prepared and associated materials (video clips, powerpoint presentation, sheets,…) will be produced.

Within the Inno4Grass website – one stop shop for grassland tools/methods for grazing management supports

Inno4Grass will be a website that has all the grassland tools and supports available for grassland practitioners. Stakeholders will be able to access grassland tools from the website and use them directly in the work whether farming, research or education.

Identification of the IMS to be used for storing the description of farms and for calculating the indicators of performances and IT programming for on-farm data collection

A single information system will be identified where all data will be stored. All those who will described farms will download the data of their case studies onto this information system and will be allowed to upload information from the whole project.

Inno4Grass Award Ceremony for 8 farmers during second GPA meeting

Grassland awards will be established as part of this deliverable and outstanding grassland farmers will be rewarded for their efforts in promoting excellence in grassland management.

Upgraded versions of decision support systems for a better estimation of grassland DM production and better decisions by farmers

Several decision support systems are available in Europe regarding grassland management and most use the DM production as a key element. Various prediction models are available for DM production, with different precisions, especially because of the range of soil and climate conditions that can be met across Europe.A synthesis will be made of existing tools, with a precise description of strengths and weaknesses and their domain of optimal utilization. They will also be made easily accessible through the right links. We will not upgrade them as for most of them they were not developed by members of our consortium.

Working grassland visiting program, that young people progressing in grassland can use to acquire an increased understanding and knowledge of the area and verified with three secondments

A visiting grassland network will be established whereby young people wanting to gain more knowledge in grassland can be facilitated to achieve this. A number of visiting periods will be set up between organisations to facilitate this deliverable.

Adapted method for cognitive mapping of production systems

The idea is to represent through ‘simple’ matrix the combination of the grassland-management practices used by farmers and to identify the most valuable and the most frequent combinations. This is based upon the graph theory.
