COMPARATIVE ECONOMIC RATIONALE FOR THE CREATION OF POPLAR FOREST PLANTATIONS WITH PLANTING MATERIAL USING "IN VITRO"
Recently, there has been an increased demand for planting material using biotechnologies, including for fast-growing tree species. The article reveals the relevance and prospects of economic calculations related to the scientific justification of growing wood planting material «in vitro». The practical significance of the study lies in the possibility of applying the results obtained for the plantation cultivation of poplars. The results obtained can be used for economic justification of the costs of creating forest stands, as well as landscaping and protective afforestation.
