Nitrogenous compounds and their fractions were evaluated in sown grassland (simple mixtures of Dactylis glomerata and Lolium perenne with Trifolium repens and of a complex mixture with Trifolium pratense) at 3 levels of N fertilization and 2 levels of P and K fertilization. The highest production of crude protein was recorded in the simple mixture with Dactylis glomerata and the highest concentration in the mixture with Lolium perenne. Increased N rates increase the output of N compounds in all types of grassland, but their concentrations increase significantly at the highest N rates. Increased P and K rates without N influenced the yield and concentration of crude protein only in simple mixture stands with Dactylis glomerata. The highest non-protein N was observed in the mixture with Lolium perenne, and the lowest concentration of nitrate N was also recorded in this mixture. Even at the highest rate of 360 kg N per ha, the concentration of NO3-N remains far from the toxicity level. The concentration of amino acids is the highest in grassland with the complex mixture with Trifolium pratense. Increase in N rates results in increase in amino acid concentration, including the essential ones.
