Protection for our fields: Erosion protection information evening in Straß!
Protection for our fields: Erosion protection information evening in Straß!
On Wednesday evening, June 11, 2025, the Office for Food, Agriculture and Forestry (Aelf) Ingolstadt-Pfaffenhofen invites farmers to the only information event of this kind in the region in Straß. This event revolves around the topic of transverse dams in potato construction, an important procedure for combating erosion and increasing earnings.
The event begins at 7.30 p.m. on a field on Straß (coordinates: 48,708295, 11.050590) and offers interested parties the opportunity to find out about innovative tentricity techniques. Parking is available in the meadow at the venue and registration is not required - participation is free.
transverse dams in potato cultivation
cross -dams play a crucial role in keeping the water better and avoiding erosion. These little hollows enable the rainwater to be infiltrated and thus serves to form the yield, as the DonaUkurier reports. The combination of transverse dams and a greening with winter barley, which is considered the optimal plant, is particularly effective. This stabilizes the dams through its strong rooting and enables improved water storage in heavy rainfall.
winter barley has the advantage that it is robust and does not shoot what makes its use in combination with cross -dams particularly attractive. Due to its roots and the microbial revival of the soil, it can not only prevent erosion, but also contribute to soil health in the long term. This is also shown by the findings of Agrarheute, which emphasizes the specialized techniques for sowing winter barley between the dams.
climate change and erosion protection
In view of the climate change, which is characterized by heavy rain and heat periods, the protection of the arable land is becoming increasingly important. "Water is a crucial production factor," emphasizes the Aelf Bayern, which raises the need to store rainwater and use it efficiently. Erosion risks can be mitigated by the right crop rotation and the use of transverse dams, which can also contain temporary drainage tidy or drainage locks in particularly susceptible areas.For farmers who work without mulch seed, the greening of the intermediate tribes offers a suitable way to stabilize the soil and increase water storage. The event in Straß will provide all participants valuable information and practical approaches to successfully master the challenges of modern agriculture.
Overall, the event not only shows the practical application of agricultural techniques, but also draws attention to the importance of sustainable cultivation practices in times of climate change. There is a lot to the farmers to protect their fields through such innovative methods and at the same time to optimize their earnings.
