Description

One of the ways of counteracting the degradation of meadow plant communities is the improvement of their botanical com­position by direct sowing. In order io achieve this aim, various methods are applied: among others, sowing directly into sward (Laissus, 1984) and others. Success of sowing depends mainly on the efficiency of introduction of new grass species into the sward which is beeing degradated. That is why an attempt was made to estimate the possibility of use of some species of grasses for improvement of communities dominated by Poa pratensis on peat soils (Wizna Fen).
