Grassland Cycles
Before you start to enter data for grassland production, you have to open a production cycle. For permanent grasslands a production cycle refers to one product though one year.
With cycle opening you have to determine planned quantity of product. This is more a guidance as final product can be bigger or smaller. But when you have at harvest reached or exceeded planned value, program will automatically offer you a closure of cycle. It is always possible to add more product to cycle, but you have to manually open and afterwards close the cycle.
