“…The vegetation surveys were conducted with the linear point quadrate method described by Daget-Poissonet [ 87 ]. The considered vegetation features in the present research were the following: floristic composition (grasses, legumes and forbs considered as species number and specific contribution—CS%) [ 3 , 39 , 47 , 48 , 77 , 88 ], biodiversity (as species richness—S, Shannon index—H′ [ 3 , 89 , 90 ] and Simpson index (D) [ 3 , 48 , 91 ]) and pastoral value—VP (0–100 scale) [ 3 , 53 , 87 , 92 ]. The pastoral value characterizes the relative forager value of the grassland sward based on the specific contribution in the grassland cover of the species with the forager value expressed as the Specific Forage Quality Index (SFQi) [ 78 , 87 ].…”
