Evaluates grassland productivity in the Căpățănii Mountains, suggesting implications for optimal management.
The permanent grasslands in the central-southern part of the Căpățănii Mountains locatedbetween 450-2 120 m altitude are rich in plant species, registering a number of 54cormophytes in the 163 associations described. The general coverage with vegetation was95%, of which 60% were valuable forager species and 35% harmful to the grass carpet. At thelevel of phytosociological alliances (habitats), the highest forage green mass (GM) productionswere evaluated for Agrostion stoloniferae (17.2 t/ha), Arrhenatherion elatioris (12.9 t/ha) andCynosurion cristati (12.2 t/ha) that allow an average load of 1.1-1.5 LU/ha. The lowest GMyields of 0.3-0.4 t/ha with a loading below 0.1 LU/ha were in Filipendulo-Petasition andCalthion palustris. The achievable milk production was 68-80 hectoliters per hectare for thethree best alliances with the highest GM and PV production shown above. Very low results inmilk production were evaluated in alliances with the lowest VM productions and the lowest PVindices presented earlier. The data regarding the evaluation of economic productivity indices(GM, PV, LU/ha, Milk/ha) continue to serve for the correct preparation of pastoralarrangements and the optimal management of mountain grasslands.
