Sjenica Pester plateau is a high natural value region in Serbia characterized by pastures and traditional land use practices. The promotion of sustainable use of animal resources in the Sienica Pester plateau, through Republic Project of Serbia 2011-2023 conducted by FVM, University of Belgrade, aims to support agroecology and rural development in the area. One of the ecosystem services provided by Sjenica sheep farming is the maintenance of pastures ecosystems. The farming system is based on traditional grazing practices that have been used in the region for centuries. This paper presents the current situation of rational use of native Sjenica sheep and its impact on ecosystem services. The field surveys were conducted in the Sjenica Pester plateau in the summer of 2022. Sheep grazing practices, grassland biodiversity and landscape management were analyzed. The results suggest that Sjenica sheep farming system has helped to maintain the pastures and preserve the cultural heritage of t...he region. It is important to continue monitoring and evaluating the impact of native Sienica sheep farming on ecosystem services to ensure that the practices remain sustainable and have a positive impact on the local environment.
