Abstract/Contents:"Forage or turfgrass species sown to revegetate bare areas should not prevent the return of the native species and the formation of natural vegetation. In 2001, a plot experiment was initiated to compare revegetation on a landslide located at about 1050 m a.s.l. on calcareous moraine. The revegetation was carried out with four propagation materials (1. natural meadow hay (Nh), 2. Nh+natural meadow seed (Nhs), 3. Nh+s+commercial seed (Nhsc), 4. Nh+c (Nhc)) combined with four types of natural meadow hay where propagation material came from. Floristic surveys took place in years 2002 to 2004. In all treatments, the total number of species increased, mainly due to the increase of meadow species and to the entry of local species from the surrounding area but also due to the establishment of sown or not sown commercial species. Treatments that received only seed and/or hay from natural meadows (propagation materials 1 and 2) showed a considerably higher number and cover of species coming from natural meadows than treatments sown also with commercial seed (propagation materials 3 and 4)."
