Essay

The thesis deals with the results, of the four-year research on the peculiarities of herbage radioactive contamination on the natural lands of Ukrainian Polissya. The dynamiks of dry matte digestibility and release of 137Cs in the rumen of ruminants depending on the digestibility cycle have been studied. Correlative dependence and equation of regressions have been determined. It has been established that natural pasture herbage accounts for 81% of cattle ration radioactivity an individual and 55%- on collective farms. Measures aimed at lowering 137Cs flows from natural pastures have been suggested.
