Short summary
Grasslands shape the landscape in many parts of the world and serve as the main source of fodder for livestock. There is a lack of comprehensive data on grassland yield, although these data are highly valuable for authorities and research. By applying three approaches to estimate grassland yields, namely, a satellite data model, a biogeochemical model and a field measurements approach, we provide annual grassland yield maps for the Ammer region in 2019 and highlight the potentials and limitations of the approaches.
