Cercetari privind regenerarea sub masiv si introducerea la adapostul masivului a unor specii autohtone valoroase, in arborete apropiate de exploatabilitate, de pe terenuri degradate
Researches made in the most important part of protection plantations reforested on land degradation showed that the basic species is Pinus nigra and/ or Pinus silvestris replacing some stands with Hippophae associations. This stands have a fragile structure, not so good for protection functions. Sheltered regeneration and reforestation with local valuable species represents an efficient method for increasing the stability of stands in the reforestation of land degradation. In this way the degradation process was stopped and the vegetation was reinstalled.
