Natural grasslands and pastures occupy 5.96% of the country territory. According to European Space Agency, changes in land cover from 2000–2015 indicate decrease in total grassland area of 1765 km2 (30.03%), emphasizing dominant conversion of grasslands to forests. Ongoing depopulation trend, rural to urban migrations, and decrease in livestock population are some of main factors impacting grasslands. This trend favors further naturalization of pastures striving to increase the areas under natural grasslands. Such conversion will contribute to overall change in biodiversity richness, especially in areas with saline soils and high mountain regions with increased level of endemic species. Grasslands play important role in overall sustainability, but their importance it is not properly addressed. Environmental experts should recognize drivers of grasslands degradation and propose appropriate conservation and restoration measures. The priority should be avoidance of grassland degradation t...hat requires good assessment of their current conditions and monitoring of plant, soil, climate conditions and land use activities. Further measures are deduced to sustainable land management practices and smooth human interventions, whereas the aftermost adopted measures should be related to restoration. Grasslands should have more emphasized role in our society and LDN principles should be applied for their preservation.
