The study objective was to assess the influence of various meadow sward regeneration technologies on changes in its species composition. The studies were carried out in 2003–2006 at the Didactic-Research Station in Sosnowica on peat-muck soil (Mt II). The meadow lot is located in a complex drained and reclaimed for agriculture in 1964–1966, situated in the middle section of the Piwonia river. Various meadow sward regeneration technologies and four levels of nitrogen fertilisation were used in a split-plot experiment with four repetitions. The seeding or overdrilling was performed with a specialist seeding machine Hassia with fluted blades. The sward was cut three times at optimum dates for such communities. The largest share of overdrilled species was observed in the years 2003–2004 as well as in the meadow sward after ploughing and chemical ploughing, with and without rotary tilling. At the same time, a significant share of herb and weed species was observed in the sward in the first year after the measures above were applied. Intensive measures also reduced the share of Poa pratensis in the meadow sward
