Description / Observations After the first check on the pilot site after sowing were everything as expected without any significant disturbance.

The one that should be mentioned is the lack of rayn along the season, the growing season was too short, from March till May all the species were appearing and growing slowly, but by June - July the pasture was already dry. Cattle was introduce in July to take advantage of the pasture before it was too late and wasted.Also there were regular checks on the small plots were seeds were sown by species in high density, to check the germinability on the site, but the situation was the same, they grow during a short period of time and got dry soon.
