Spring at the Forest selection and seed center

Planting of ball-rooted young plants was initiated at the Forest selection and seed center of the Republic of Tatarstan (Saby Municipal District). The first batch of cassettes with elite seeds — that is 1 million of young plants of Norway spruce — took its place in one of the greenhouses of the center.

Seeds are still being planted at the Forest selection and seed center. The Forest selection and seed center provides with planting material with improved hereditary features, ensures stable work of Tatar foresters with regard to forest restoration and forest cultivation, as well as allows to implement new technologies when growing young plants, which will considerably enhance the quality of forests.
