Summary
V.F. Kuprevich Institute of Experimental Botany offers consumers the development of recommendations for optimizing logging, reforestation and afforestation in accordance with the geobotanical zoning of the territory, forest types, technologies for logging the main use of the customer under an outsourcing agreement and is looking for partners to conclude a distribution services agreement.
Description
The main recommendations have been developed for optimizing final and intermediate forest felling aimed at increasing the stability and biological diversity of forest ecosystems, taking into account the patterns of natural successions. The recommendations developed the main directions for optimizing the target compositions of forest stands for intermediate felling based on the geobotanical zoning of the territory of Belarus of forest types, technologies for final felling. Adjustments were made to the composition of forest plantations depending on the type of growing conditions, taking into account the patterns of natural successions. Recommendations are finalized in accordance with the conditions and requirements of the customer as part of the agreement.
Advantages and Innovations
Economic and environmental efficiency of application is determined by the following indicators:
* reducing the loss of biodiversity of forest ecosystems during forestry activities;
* reduction of unreasonable costs for reforestation and forest protection measures;
* increase in the share of participation of valuable breeds in the composition of young animals by at least 10%;
* strengthening the protective functions of forests;
* Reducing the time of forest growing by 5..10 years by 10..15% of the forested area;
* increasing the competitiveness of forest products of Belarusian manufacturers on the international market, as obtained fr om forests wh ere environmentally oriented forestry is carried out (obtaining or maintaining FSC, PEFC certificates).

Additional comments
V.F. Kuprevich Institute of Experimental Botany of the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus is the oldest biological research institution in the republic.

The main activities of the Institute:
* assessment of the impact of new construction (reconstruction) and economic activities on flora objects;
* ecotourism and eco-education: design and information support of ecological trails, visitor centers and forest eco-educational centers, development of promotional products;
* assessment of the degree of infestation of the fertile soil layer with viable seeds of Sosnowsky's hogweed and the development of ways to combat this dangerous invasive species;
* development and production of artificial substrates for reproduction and cultivation of plants;
* creation of compositions of growth regulators and plant protection products, as well as technologies for their application;
* testing of plant protection products subject to state registration (for tree and shrub species in forest, protective, landscaping plantations, forest plantations and nurseries, as well as for flax).

Extensive research has been carried out at the Institute, as a result of which the distribution and stocks of the most important types of medicinal plants in the republic have been established; the dynamics of medicinal plant resources was revealed, recommendations for their rational use were developed; the chorological features of the flora of Belarus were clarified, which was the basis for the development of specific measures for the protection of individual representatives and floristic complexes as a whole. The Institute has a priority in studying the patterns of flora formation, features of ecology and biology of plant species, the structure and composition of their populations under extreme growing conditions, as well as the taxonomic study of individual species and genera of plants of the Belarusian flora.

The Institute studies the patterns of distribution and formation of natural vegetation in Belarus, the structure and productivity of plant communities, the dynamics and direction of successional processes in the vegetation cover. The scientific bases for the rational use of plant resources and the protection of the flora, the theoretical foundations and principles for the classification of vegetation, the typological classification of the forests of Belarus, the forest and geobotanical zoning of the republic, the scientific foundations of forestry on zonal-typological principles are being developed.
A collection of pure cultures of micromycetes, deuteromycetes, consisting of 55 species (more than 300 strains), 400 strains of bacteria identified to the genus, isolated fr om the rhizosphere and phylloplana of leguminous plants and potatoes, has been created.

The Institute conducts comprehensive research to develop the fundamental foundations of modern sustainable and environmentally friendly crop production, substantiates the effectiveness of the use of new forms of preparations for agriculture, develops ways to lim it the spread of invasive plant species, creates environmentally safe and cost-effective technologies for using biotechnological production waste as secondary material resources, which allows us to successfully search for methods that combine the ecological orientation of extensive agriculture and the advantages of knowledge-intensive intensive food production, to offer new ways to stimulate productivity.

The Institute maintains international relations within the framework of existing agreements on scientific and technical cooperation, agreements and memorandums on scientific and technical (creative) cooperation with relevant organizations from different countries.
