Description
Natural grasslands are the base of the livestock production in the hilly-mountainous regions of Yugoslavia. Poor economic power of the owners of these areas brought about a complete dying out of agricultural production in these regions in the last few years. In the same time, the lack of financial resources made it impossible for the farmers to use the fertilisers, protective and other chemical agents which result in a high degree of environmental preservation. Due to current economic policy at this time the population has moved out and there is no industrialisation. The revival of agriculture on the hilly-mountainous regions is one of the imperatives of total economic development today. The recent problem of undeveloped and neglected hilly-mountainous regions turned out to be a lucky circumstance in the sense of environmental preservation as it provides new possibilities in keeping up with world trends. The objective of this study was to present the possibilities of natural grassland resources exploitation, and perspectives of biologically high value food production in the hill-mountain regions of Yugoslavia.

Native Grasslands of Yugoslavia as a Potential for "Biologically High Quality Food" Production - To Be Preserved and Used for the Benefit of All
Natural grasslands are the base of the livestock production in the hilly-mountainous regions of Yugoslavia. Poor economic power of the owners of these areas brought about a complete dying out of agricultural production in these regions in the last few years. In the same time, the lack of financial resources made it impossible for the farmers to use the fertilisers, protective and other chemical agents which result in a high degree of environmental preservation. Due to current economic policy at this time the population has moved out and there is no industrialisation. The revival of agriculture on the hilly-mountainous regions is one of the imperatives of total economic development today. The recent problem of undeveloped and neglected hilly-mountainous regions turned out to be a lucky circumstance in the sense of environmental preservation as it provides new possibilities in keeping up with world trends.
