Abstract
The aim of this study was to analyze the species composition of seven communities of mountain grasslands selected in the Kłodzko County, with regard to the presence of useful plants, whose share largely determines the possibilities of their use, mainly as a fodder for ruminants, as a natural place for obtaining pollen and nectar for Apidae, as well as the base of medicinal, edible or of potential culinary importance plants. The analysis was based on 221 phytosociological relevés completed with Braun-Blanquet’s method in the years 2009-2013. Results of the research show that the majority of distinguished communities was characterized by a good utility value number of the sward (UVN=6.1-7.2), with the exception of Angelico-Cirsietum oleracei association (UVN=3.8), significant share of plant species valuable for fodder, plants with medicinal properties, edible for humans and melliferous plants (providing pollen and nectar).
