Özet

This study was carried out in 2015 with the aim of determining some vegetation characteristics of pastures of 33 villages of Mardin province and its subprovinces. Modified wheeled loop method was used in the study to determine the vegetation characteristics of these pastures. Total 132 plant species were identified by the vegetation survey. Studied pastures were dominated by 5 decreaser, 5 increaser and 122 invader species. According to the classification of species in pasture vegetation, the proportion of decreaser, increaser and invasive species were determined as 2.08%, 3.15% and 94.77%, respectively. The average plant coverage rate of surveyed pastures was 71.35%. The average proportion of legumes in botanical composition was 40.66%, the proportion of grasses was 22.82% and the proportion of other families was 36.52%. According to the results obtained from the surveys, all of the studied pastures were classified as weak. In terms of pasture health, 19 pastures were determined as problematic, 10 pastures as risky and 4 pastures as healthy. These results show that; a large number of the studied pastures are in a need of utilization with caution where the remaining parts need to be included in rehabilitation programs urgently.
