The state and growth of korean cedar crops in the conditions of the Rakovsky district forestry
The article presents the data of the survey of forest crops of Korean cedar in the conditions of the Rakovsky district forestry of the Ussuri branch of the KSCU "Primorskoe Forestry", created by manual planting of three-year-old seedlings. The analysis of the course of cedar growth according to different taxational characteristics is given. The placement of cedar seedlings when planted in a row after 0.5-0.8 m leads to a tough intraspecific competition with the growth of crops, which significantly increases the differentiation of plantings by diameter. Thickened forest crops at the age of 35-40 years, cedar felling is required to increase the distance between the trees.
