Prospects for the development of a feed base for pasture livestock farming in the Central Black earth region
As a result of prolonged excessive anthropogenic impact, there is a degradation of meadow and pasture agrobiocenoses, and global climate change is exacerbating the situation by reducing the hydrothermal coefficient. In general, it can be stated that cattle breeding in the Central Black Earth Region has a fairly high development potential, which is due to a combination of factors, including favorable natural and climatic conditions, a high level of government support, and a growing demand for the industry's products from processing enterprises. At the same time, the increase in the number of beef cattle kept on pasture has an additional negative impact on pastures. Adopted federal and regional programs for restoring the fertility of agricultural lands can be implemented using zoned varieties of perennial grasses.
