Abstract
The volume and intensity of forming and sanitation forest fellings in oak stands of Velikoanadolsky forest area from 1974 to 2013 are analyzed. A reduction in the productivity of artificial oak stands in the last 5–10 years to 6–8 % and an increase in the intensity of thinning and sanitation fellings in the last 10–15 years are revealed due to the intensification of the processes of drying and decomposition of oak trees in the region. In view of the stand constitution and composition of oak stands of the forest area, the goal to form stable stands had not been achieved by tending fellings. The changes in the system of forestry practice should be implemented for stands of Velikoanadolsky forest area aimed at creating complex and mixed stands.
