Note to the reader: This general fiche summarises the environmental and climate impacts of different GRASSLAND MANAGEMENT practices, namely soil organic amendment, soil fertilisation with conventional or with enhanced-efficiency fertilisers, mowing, grazing and increasing grass/forb species richness, found in a systematic review of 34 synthesis research paperspapers [1]. These papers were selected from an initial number of 1022 obtained through a systematic literature search strategy, according to the inclusion criteria reported in section 4.
