Abstract
In the autumn of 2021, we examined the residual effects of applied granular sheep manure in a saline habitat, transitional grass association, in the spring of 2024. Three years after the application of organic fertilizer doses (10-15-20 t/ha), we measured the dominance of Alopecuretum pratensis as the dominant grass species in the treatments, while in the control, Festuca pseudovina became the dominant associate. The composition of the plant community influenced yield levels, with the 20 t/ha manure treatment yielding 110.6% more than the control. In terms of species diversity, the treatments that received manure showed higher values.
