The examination was conducted at seven locations in the Moravica District (Serbia) including 12 natural grasslands (9 meadows and 3 pastures). The natural meadows and pastures of the region were in an anvanced stage of degradation, as suggested by high distribution of weeds, and even harmful and toxic species (an average of 39.85%), the proportion of quality grasses and legumes being 40.53% and 19,62%, respectively. Weed distribution ranged from 8.48% to 68.06%, depending on soil properties, location, cultural practices, grassland utilization methods, etc. An analysis of floristic composition on non-fertilized meadows indicated a high share of weeds and minor grass species (71.13%). Conversely, considerably higher grass and legume percentages, 62.38% and 34.12% respectively, were recorded on fertilized meadows.
