This is prima- rily due to the commitment in many countries to extend the forest area or to rehabilitate de- graded forest ecosystems and to reclaim disturbed sites for forestry, also with the aims to main- tain and increase biodiversity, to mitigate global climate changes. In addition, the market of the forest nursery stock has changed: nurserymen are requested to produce planting stock of high quality standards, of a wide variety of species, of native spe- cies and local provenances, and of broad-leaves rather than conifers. The conference held in Rome in 2001, whose proceeding we have the pleasure to edit, brou- ght together scientists, forest managers, policy advisors, private nursery entrepreneurs and producers of nursery equipments. The proceedings present biological results and technical so- lutions regarding nursery production and stand establishment of forest broad-leaves from projects and activities all over the world. With participation from 20 different countries the conference and this proceeding will be a landmark for people interested in nursery production and stand establishment of broad-lea- ves in order to promote sustainable forest management.

Facciotto2 Summary The establishment of short rotation forestry (SRF) plantations for the production of biomass: a) allows the reduction of excessive production of food crops and b) from the environmental point of view, makes the production of energy sustainable (at preesent 90% of energy is produced by the traditional fossil fuel throughout the world). The economical sustenance of this type of cultivation requires low cost techniques during and after the establishment of the plantation. One of the most demanding operations when establishing poplar plantations for Short Rota- tion Forestry is cutting sets into cuttings. A little over 600 cuttings ⋅ h-1 (5 s ⋅ cutting-1) were produced using traditional techniques (tak- ing into consideration the position of the buds). This level of productivity is acceptable on small surfaces like the ones used to produce cuttings in nursery. It is however considered too low in the case of establishing poplar SRF plantations. In order to increase productivity, the Mechanical Division of the DEIAFA, together with the Is- tituto di Sperimentazione per la Pioppicoltura and the Berni Company, and with the financial support of ENEL-CRAM, designed and developed a machine to produce cuttings, taking into consideration the safety of the operator. The system of producing cuttings is schematically made up of: a) a plastic wrapper which en- circles some sets automatically; b) a circular saw, provided with a 500 mm diameter blade with necessary protection; c) a feeding system; d) a pre-determining system of cutting lengths and e) a spraying system to paint one end of the cuttings so that they can be inserted in the transplanting machine correctly. The machine can produce cuttings of different lengths from 20 to 40 cm, put together in 15- 20 units which are dropped in special containers. During a series of tests carried out with one-year old poplar sets the machine produced over 3000 cuttings⋅h-1 which corresponds to 1,2 s ⋅ cutting-1. If this machine were used for SRF in a 100 ha, 8-year rotation plantation, the cost of pro- ducing cuttings would drop by 22% when compared to the traditional system.

  • CONTAINERS Section 2 Section 2: Containers
    CONTAINERS Section 2 Section 2: Containers Most agroforestry tree nurseries either produce bare-rooted seedlings or use polythene bags. We recommend that in a research nursery containers are used. However, polybags often restrict the root growth, and roots curl at the bottom or grow into the ground, resulting in weak or injured plants. We discuss root trainer systems as a modern alternative. As a nursery manager, you have to decide whether to operate a bare- root nursery or a container nursery. Your decision depends mainly on the species and the environment. Economic considerations also play a role. bare-root nursery container nursery water requires frequent watering has moderate water requirements soil conditions needs excellent soil soil quality is not critical can occupy a smaller area because land needs large area of land because of higher densities and lower plants are grown at lower densities requirements culling rates soil-borne pests and diseases may spread of disease can be better plant hygiene become a problem contained and controlled specific mycorrhiza and other mycorrhiza and other symbionts symbionts symbionts may need to be added to may be present substrate bare-root seedlings are relatively container seedlings are relatively seedling intolerant to physical abuse and tolerant to physical abuse and handling mishandling mishandling unnecessary if root trainers provide root pruning necessary and labour intensive air pruning seedlings suffer outplanting stress; seedlings are more tolerant to outplanting they are more suitable for better outplanting stress and are suitable sites for poorer sites 22 CONTAINERS Section 2 Bare-root nurseries are often recommended for on-farm nurseries because of the smaller capital investment needed.
