Today, orchards are not only a tra­di­tion­al form of fruit grow­ing, but the areas also serve as grass­land, for exam­ple for mow­ing or exten­sive graz­ing. Prof. Dr. Gis­bert Schalitz (Mar­tin Luther Uni­ver­si­ty Halle) leads this excur­sion on the top­ic of orchards and veg­e­ta­tion on dry grass­land. As a grass­land sci­en­tist, for­est and orchard grow­er, Prof. Schalitz is an expert in this field and con­veys inter­est­ing facts about old fruit vari­eties, but also inter­est­ing facts about var­i­ous dry grass­land plants in a gen­er­al­ly under­stand­able form. A deter­mi­na­tion book is useful.

The excur­sion is free, but dona­tions are welcome.
