The research focused on identifying grassland habitats that are a priority within the Northern Ireland biodiversity strategy and also those identified as being of particular importance within Annex 1 of the Habitats Directive. The research methodology used well established survey techniques to identify high nature conservation value grasslands from high incidence study areas throughout Northern Ireland.
