Abstract

Forestry enterprises of the Republic of Belarus have accumulated significant experience in conducting renovation felling. The article analyzes 54 areas of renovation felling that are at different stages of carrying out/completion of felling, carried out using different options (with/without measures to promote natural regeneration of forest) and methods (uniform/uneven removal of trees). During the research, a previously developed methodology for rating the component structure of plantings was tested for the first time to control established functions at the stages of performing techniques and completing renovation felling. Criteria are also proposed for assessing the degree of the level of the target function of sustainable development/functioning of pine plantations during renovation felling. The change in the rating and degree of the level of fulfillment of the target function of pine forests at the stages of carrying out/completion of renovation felling using various methods and options was studied. Individual surveyed areas of renovation felling with high efficiency of preserving and achieving the target function of sustainable development/functioning of forests at the stages of reception and completion of felling, as well as felling areas with preservation of the target function at a low level, are presented. As a result of the research, the results of renovation felling in pine forests of Belarus were assessed and the factors influencing the success of their implementation were identified.
