METHOD FOR EVALUATING EFFECTIVENESS OF PROCESSES FOR AMELIORATION OF LONG-STANDING HAYFIELDS AND PASTURES Russian patent published in 2007 - IPC A01B79/02 

FIELD: agriculture and forestry.

SUBSTANCE: method involves providing wide-row sowing of perennial local grasses and perennial hayfield grasses; forming herbage on the basis of identity of productive longevity; waiting for maximal yield time and simultaneously achievement, during usage, of plant development stage corresponding to maximal feeding value of grasses; during two first years of plant life, mowing herbage for obtaining of energy-valuable dry feed; during the following years of plant life, grazing down plants to animals; separating versions of tests for comparative processes with side-lands for test crops; creating each side-land between test versions by means of seeding unit which seeds scarified seeds of test crops; using moderately eaten during autumn leguminous plant of licorice (Glycyrrhiza glabra L.) or steppe, lemon or flood ecotypes and bean caper family plant (Peganum hamiala) non-eaten by animals, said plants being sown at the norm of 1-2 plants per running meter. Seed embedding depth for said plants should not exceed 2.0-2.5 cm.

EFFECT: increased efficiency in ameliorating and creating of pastures and sown long-standing hayfields in arid and near-desert territories.
