Abstract

The results of multiyear investigations to develop technologies for improving floodplain meadows on drained low, high, and transitional peat bogs in the Central Region of the Non-Chernozem Zone of Russia are given. A high effectiveness of resource-conserving technologies for creating seeded grass stands depending on the pressure of the machines on the meadow sod is established.
