Summary/Abstract: Research results on the productivity of different types of poic plant communities of the left bank forest-steppe of Ukraine are presented. It is shown that the accumulation of aboveground mass depends on the type of a meadow, its part and weather conditions. The accumulation rate can be divided into three groups. Most of the studied meadowshad the mean value of aboveground mass: ahalf of water meadows and from a third to a half of upland and lowlandmeadows. The conservation status and reducing the economic burden increase the productivity.
