The data on efficiency of a lucerne (Medicago sativa) of the sowing campaign cultivated on the antropogenically transformed peat soils of Polesye with the content of organic substance of 13-26% and the level of ground waters more than 0.8 m are submitted. Productivity of lucerne herbage can reach depending on applied agro- and biotechnological methods. It is established that efficiency of a lucerne herbage can reach 56.8-87.9 centner feed units per hectare depending on the applied agrobioprocessing methods. At cultivation of a lucerne on such soils without cover culture (the doubled norm of seeding) more effective in comparison than under winter pea and oat mix. This mode provides an increasing of feed units per hectare by 13.8-26.1; digested protein content by 1.4-2.6 and exchangeable energy by 15.83- 30.61 GJ per hectare.
