Summary: Estabilishing productivity of natural pastures, sellective
graying and palatability of major plant types and communities that serve
as fodder base for livestock produstion, research on the adaptability and
reactions of introduced forage plants to the agroecological conditions of
the mountainous and Mediterranean regions. The obtained results should
serve as scientific base for the development of an integration system of
livestock production into the mountainous and Mediterranean ahroecological
areas.
Keywords: Pasture productivity, palatability, sellective graying, management systems of pasture resources
Research goals: Results obrained during project activities will
serve asscientigic base for the development of an integration system of
livestock producrion into the agroecological areas of the Mediterranean
and mountainous regions. With the introduction of forage types from other
ecological areas, increase the potentials of fodder production in
unfavorable seasons.
