Depending on the existing environmental conditions and the requirements of the tree species, regeneration can be done under the shelter of the old stand, on open ground or on the forest border.
Forestry
Forestry is art, craft and science at the same time. Through the forestry work, the regeneration, composition, growth, health and quality of forests is controlled so that the needs and values of owners and society are met both now and in the future. Basically, through silvicultural interventions, the natural processes of forest life are mimicked at a rapid pace.
The national forest fund includes forests, land for afforestation, nurseries and plantations, crops of various types (e.g. Christmas trees, ornamental shrubs), forest administration land (e.g. forest roads, pasture, pheasantry, huts, etc.), ponds, water catchment areas, as well as non-productive land.
In addition, forests fulfil numerous ecological functions (biodiversity, soil, water, climate protection, etc.), economic functions (wood and non-wood products, services, etc.) and social functions (aesthetic, recreational, etc.).
Once the seedling layer is installed, it requires care and management interventions. The development of seedlings is assisted by weeding, release cutting and respacing, cutting-back, stool shoot removal, and other silvicultural interventions.
