The influence of felling intensity and soil preparation method on the growth and development of natural pine reproduction in the Puszcza Augustowska Forest
The results of a 4-year research project on natural regeneration of understory Scotch pine (Pinus sylvestris L. ) using various harvest intensities and various soil preparation methods (plough and disk harrow ) are presented. The research was carried out on 3 experimental plots in the Puszcza Augustowska Forest (in N-E Poland). Analysis of density, survival, growth and quality of pine seedlings were performed. Significant influence of soil preparation method and intensity of fellings on weed development and regeneration was found.
