Abstract

In the period of 2011-2015, a field experiment was conducted in the foothill region of the Central Balkan Mountain. The behaviour of some meadow grasses of local origin was studied, which had not been used before, under artificial sowing conditions. It has been found that there is an opportunity to cultivate French rye grass and white bentgrass under conditions of highly gleyed pseuodopodzolic soils. Under the experimental conditions, the most productive species were red and tall fescue. The average green matter yield of red fescue was 21.70 t.xa -1 , and dry matter -7.032 t.xa -1 . In comparison, tall fescue surpassed it insignificantly according to average green matter yield (5.07%), but it was also insignificantly inferior according to dry matter (5,73%). Perennial ryegrass and big quaking grass were the most low-yielding grasses in the current study. Their average green mass, for the period of study, was 16.30 t.xa -1 and 16.10 t.xa -1 , and dry matter was 4.159 t.xa -1 and 4.878 t.xa -1 .
