Mountain-specific activities of the European Grassland Federation

In 1963, grassland scientists officially established the European Grassland Federation (EGF), which represents countries throughout Europe and covers all European mountainous regions. From the beginning, the EFG had the following objectives:

• to facilitate and maintain close contact among European grassland organisations;
• to promote the interchange of scientific and practical experience among grassland experts;
• to initiate symposia and other meetings among European grassland organisations.
