The alliance Arrhenatherion elatioris includes the most common types of mesic Central European meadows, occurring on gentle slopes or non-flooded river terraces. They are used for hay-making, usually mown twice a year, with occasional aftermath grazing in some places. This alliance is most common in Central Europe, but it also occurs in other regions of temperate Europe.
