Abstract

Erosive processes are detrimental to agriculture, with meadows and pastures lose their fertility potential. However, natural factors, influence of anthropogenic environmental factors exacerbate the situation, creating conditions for the development of desertification. The decline of soil fertility in qualitative and quantitative content of forage land productivity, which in turn leads to a decrease in livestock production. The seeding of legume-grass on winter pastures strengthens eroded the soil, improves water-physical properties, soil nutrient status, increases the productivity of pastures and is a means of combating desertification.
