The paper presents results of activities for improving feed preparation practices in some parts of Western Serbia characterized by highly extensive livestock production. Main improvements were achieved by farmer education and introduction of a number of specialised machines for use in upland regions. The machinery was specialized for bale grass ensilage. For this purpose, six groups of farmers were established in the region. Trained and authorized for operating the machinery, the farmers were obligated to properly use and maintain it, as well as to train other farmers. The investigations covered a line of grass ensilage machines, being as follows: a rotary mower, a rotary hay collector, a roll baler and a silage bale wrapper. The study results refer to transport time, effective work hours, total work hours, performance etc. The paper presents the results of monitoring the performance of the machines and the farmer groups during the first operating season. Enlargement of the initially formed groups is further expected to take place through further farmer involvement, along with the registration of machinery rings and the achievement of their full sustainability and work independence.
