Due to the Ukrainian legislation, the domestic foresters must restore the forest at the places of the complete felling within 2 years, Ukrainian Ministry of Agrarian Policy and Food reports.
It is to be admitted, this period length is motivated by the need for soil preparation (and other measures of trees’ planting or promoting natural regeneration).
Usually, foresters carry out the restoration works within the next year after felling (sometimes, if there are all conditions, within the same year).
The most favorable weather conditions for the restoration are within the spring and autumn.
Thus, as of 2018, the restoration took place mostly at the places of the complete felling made within 2017.
It is to be admitted, within 2017, the forests’ complete felling area totaled 40,000 ha. However, as of 2018, the foresters have already restored the forests at 43,700 ha (with new forests created ta 1,900 ha).
It is to be mentioned, within the last 5 years, the Ukrainian foresters have restored forests at total 251,000 ha (up 11% against the last 5 years complete felling area - 227,000 ha).
