Abstract
The features of the growth of Quercus robur L. on eroded lands in central Dnieper Plateau have been researched. It’s done agroforestry characteristics of artificial plantations of oak on the ravine and gully systems. Simulation of heights dynamics of anti-erosion oak plantations showed that the process of growth is best described by polynomial function. The richest habitat conditions are formed on the bottom of ravine and gully systems with soils accumulated and sufficient humidity, as well as on the lower parts of the slopes. There high yield oak plantations are formed. Plantations, which occupy the upper part of the slope, reached the highest productivity. It was established that the oak plantations show an accelerated growth at a young age and declining intensity of growth in the mature ages.
