I pascoli delle Vette di Feltre
Villani, Claudia

Abstract
PASTURES OF THE VETTE DI FELTRE. This study deals with the floristic composition
of the grasslands in the Vette di Feltre (SW-Dolomites, Prov. Belluno, Italy) and with the potential of this territory for grazing. The vegetation types of economic interest above timberline are: Seslerio-Caricetum sempervirentis, Nardetum and Rumicetum alpini. These have heen mapped and the area covered by each association has been calculated. The yearly phytomass production was estimated with field measurements. On the basis of the floristic composition it is possible to calculate the fodder production in the area and consequently the optimal grazing pressure. Intensive grazing in the last centuries produced huge changes in the vegetation of the area.
