Abstract

This research was carried out in Selçuk University Abdülkadir Akçin application area. The aim of the study is to determine the effects of organic fertilization on botanical composition in plant mixtures created for artificial meadow-pasture areas created according to animal grazing habits. 3 different mixes for meadow and pasture; Ovine-poultry (Lolium perenne, Festuca rubra, Poa pratensis, Trifolium repens), cattle-1 (Lolium perenne, Dactylis glomerata, Bromus inermis, Trifolium pratense, Medicago falcata), cattle-2 (Festuca arundinecea, Dactylis glomerata, Astragalus cicer, Trifolium pratense, Medicago falcata) were prepared and 6 different fertilizers (cow-sheep-chicken-worm-chemical-without fertilizer) were applied for these mixtures. The botanical compositions of the mixtures were determined by frame method. Results indicated that the botanical composition of grasses was found the highest in the mixes prepared for ovine-poultry and sheep manure, while the ratio of legume plants was found the highest in the mixture prepared for cattle-2 and in the parcels where chicken manure was applied.
