| Title : | STRUCTURE AND RESERVES OF RESOURCES IN SPRUCE FORESTS OF NORTHWESTERN RUSSIA |
| Abstract : | The data on the species composition and productivity of the main forest resources are presented using the example of a region in the north-west of Russia. The subject of research is wood and non-wood resources of highly productive spruce forests. A comprehensive assessment of the main forest resources based on field data has been carried out. The wood reserves and volumes of non-timber forest products have been estimated - tree bark, tree greens, twig food, plants that have resource value as parts of the living ground cover. The valuation of different types of raw materials deposited in the forest ecosystem has been carried out. It has been established that the main part of the site’s resources are non-timber forest products. The share of timber in total amount of income ranges from 32 to 40%. Calculations show that the integrated harvesting of diverse forest resources can significantly reduce costs. This eliminates multiple visits to the forest area, which increases the conservation and sustainability of the ecosystem. When harvesting the available resources in winter, the income received will be 19% lower. The forest phytocenosis can undoubtedly be called a multifunctional natural factory, unique, first of all, because its products are ecologically clean and can be created without human participation and without any expenses. Such a factory produces not only wood, but also many other types of raw materials. |
