Abstract (English):
It is determined by the authors’ research that with the altitude increasing there is a decrease in species richness, the proportion of legumes and motley grass in the meadow above-ground biomass of the Kabardino-Balkaria Republic. To ensure their stability and to improve the nutritional value of meadow plant communities the differentiated approach to their economic use methods (haying or grazing) and condition creation for the dominant legume resumption are necessary.
