The aim of this study was to examine the effects of soil type and forage crops on the content of manganese (Mn) in roughages, and forage quality regarding Mn content.The trial was carried out on chernozem and humogley under alfalfa and red clover.Samples for determination of Mn content in plant and total Mn content in soil were digested using the apparatus Milestone Ethos 1 and stickers logos dallas cowboys for Mn determination on ICP-OES Vista Pro-Axial Varian.

Average total Mn content in soil of the tested sites was 473.1 mg/kg.Total Mn content in craggy range sauvignon blanc 2022 chernozem was higher than in humogley.

Average Mn content in forage crops was 28.7 mg/kg.Dry matter Mn content was lower in crops grown on humogley.

Mn content was significantly higher in red clover.Significant positive correlation was found between total Mn content in soil and Mn content in crops.Mn concentration in crops was below critical and toxic value.
