Sažetak
Grassland and pasture can usually be found in areas (marsh gley vertic soil, amphigley, epigley, hypogley) of poor and/or very poor soil properties. This is the main reason why agricultural production develops according to the following priorities: 1) cattle breeding, 2) fodder production on arable land and meadows and 3) crop farming. Limited soil properties of grassland are reflected in insufficient nutrients in arable lands (primarily nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium) and periodic phenomenon of lack or abundance of water in the soil. The practice has justified the need for soil melioration in the following order: protection of surface water, drainage of surface and subsurface water and irrigation. On heavy gley and wet soils, which are suitable for grasslands, mole drainage is recommended. In comparison to arable lands, its application has given quite successful results and longer overall duration. Each farmer aims at stable production and good hay yield. Hay yield in Croatia in the period of 1989-1998 varied from 1.9 – 2.4 t/ha and 2.4 – 3.7t/ha on grasslands and pasture respectively. Decrease of grassland and
pasture has been observed during and after the war period. Water protection and sustainable water management for irrigation is a significant mission for successful agricultural production and development of the society in general.
