SAŽETAK: Osnivanje šumskih kultura u Hrvatskoj započelo je sedamdesetih godina 20. stoljeća. Otada je udio šumskih kultura u šumskom fondu Hrva t ske varirao tijekom godina, a danas iznosi oko 3 %. Nove znanstvene spozna je ukazuju na postojanje opravdanih razloga daljnjeg te povećanog os nivanja šumskih kultura u Hrvatskoj (posebice spontano povećanje prikladnih površina za njihovo osnivanje)....
