Abstract

We conducted the ability and efficiency test of the use of the English oak ball-rooted seedlings to demonstrate the innovative value of this method for forestry. Silvicultural and economic efficiency of the process was studied during 2011–2015 in three forest districts of the Tambov region by planting bareroot and ball-rooted seedlings. The statistically significant difference in terms of survival, safety and rate of growth of seedlings of two types is not observed. The calculation of costs for a range of works on creation of partial oak plantations in the felling by planting bareroot and ball-rooted seedlings on straight strips with the advanced fall of the aerial parts of stumps and thinning up to 7 years of age is carried out taking into account the economic  situation in the Voronezh forest selective seed center. The average price of one bareroot seedling in the market of the forest-steppe zone of the European part of Russia is by 6.4 times less than the cost of a ball-rooted seedling. When planting 4,000 seedlings per 1 ha the costs of
the forest ball-rooted plantations establishing is twofold than the costs of the bareroot ones. The cultivation technology should be improved for a broad introduction of the oak ballrooted seedlings into the silvicultural practices (to reduce cost).
