- Abstract
Improvement of permanent grasslands by complete reseeding is an important action for providing high yields of grass with high feeding value. The experiments were carried out on a permanent grassland and considering the following factors: adequate machinery suitable for total sward destruction, the season of seedbed preparation and sowing, basic fertilization, choice of seed mixtures, choice of sowing equipment and postsowing management In the year following reseeding, grassland management consisted of two silage cuts and a grazing cycle with dairy cows. Total herbage production was 4 - 6 times greater than control plot and herbage crude protein content (CP %) was 1.6 - 2.1 times greater than control plot.
