The first level is related with determination and differentiation of the landscape diversity. The second part consists estimation of the pro- ductivity of the landscape based on the plant productivity of the meadow landscape unites. Keywords: landscape, potential, meadow ПРОДУКТИВНОСТ НА ЛИВАДНИТЕ ЛАНДШАФТИ В РАЙОНА НА КРАИЩЕ МЕЖДУ РЕКИТЕ КОНСКА И БИСТРИЦА Георги Железов, Александър Тодоров Резюме: Оценката на потенциала на ландшафтите е ключов параметър при изследването ми и е представителна за продуктивността им. Те са важен елемент за развитие на регионите и реализиране на добри управленски практики. Районът на Краище е един от най-бедните райони в България, въпреки близостта до столицата. Изследването на ландшафтното разнообразие и потенциалната оценка на ландшафтите дават реални възможности за промяна на икономическата ситуация в региона. Изследването отчита две основни направления. Първото ниво е свързано с определяне и диференциране на ландшафтното разнообразие. Втората част се състои в оценка на производителността на ландшафта въз основа на растителната продуктивност на ливадните ландшафти. Ключови думи: ландшафт, потенциал, ливада 1 National Institute of Geophysiscs, Geodesy and Geography, Bulgarian Academy of Sciences; [email protected], [email protected] 41 INTRODUCTION Landscapes are unique naturally-occurring combinations of natural features oc- cupying a given area. They interact with the physical environment in a way that creates cycling of organic and inorganic matter creating a clearly defined structure through the flow of energy.
