Grassland ecosystems have been altered by their transformation into cultivated land, particularly in floodplains where maize replaced alluvial meadows. The restoration of meadow plant communities after cultivation from commercial seed mixture is studied. Three methods of cutting are tested to estimate the most rapidly establishment of "desirables" species. The new plant communities and the neighbouring natural meadow vegetation are compared. As restoration of native species-rich meadows depends mainly on the increasing contribution of natural plant populations, the soit seed bank was estimated. By first cutting in the beginning or late June the sowing species are progressively ...
