The use of the forest management database in the process of primary selection of stands within forest genetic resources

Abstract

The forest management database is used for the primary selection of the candidate stands for inclusion in forest genetic resources (FGR). The management and primary processing of the forest management database was performed with the support of standard functions of commonly used software (Microsoft Excel). In 2020, the primary identification area of FGR was 75.7 thousand ha of land covered with forests in the central area of the Republic of Moldova. As a result of the data processing, 12.7 thousand ha, or 16.8% of the study area, of candidate stands were selected for inclusion in the FGR.
