The state of forest crops is an important criterion of evaluation of forestry work.

In order to seedlings of the main forest-forming breeds beautifully and quickly grew, they need to take care of them, especially in the first 5 years-to transfer in a covered forest area. Young cultures take care of all the forestry, starting from the forest-culture, the master of the forest, ending with the engineer of forest crops, the main forestry and director.

The care is conducted almost all year round, but the basic volume of work falls from April to October. Destroying weeds, grassy vegetation and the growth of the low-valued breeds by weeding, cutting, cultivation of row of the cultivator, forestry create favourable conditions for growth and development of forest crops. But I would like to note that this case is not so simple, because it is necessary to take into account many different factors in the care of seedlings. Weeds are the cause of unsatisfactory condition and death of forest artificial plantings, but there are cases where herbaceous plants play not only negative but also positive role (serve as a pritination, are a fitting for wood breeds at the age of 5 years, Protect from eating wild animals, etc.).

In general, the care is carried out by the mechanized way: a tractor with a cultivator 1.7 and Mototalbraids "STIHL", during which in the rows are removed vegetation, which prevents the growth of the main forest-forming ferries. If necessary, and manual weeding in a row, especially in the first year of growth.

To date, care of young cultures in area of 783 hectares has been conducted.
