The document discusses ecosystem services of floodplain grasslands in the Tana delta region, specifically defining fodder production. It introduces the importance of floodplain grasslands globally and the threats they face from development and climate change. The objective is to quantify the ecosystem service of fodder production through quality, quantity, and seasonality. It describes the study area of the Tana delta and importance of the Tana river. Preliminary results couple a hydrological model of the Tana river with a grass production model to simulate grassland productivity over the past ten years. Analysis is still ongoing.
