Abstract

The  most important problems regarding the regeneration of coppice are treated  here.    1. The different means of regeneration    a) by stump sprouts    b) by suckers    c) by seedlings    2. The factors which determine the formation of sprouts are: the species,  the season of cutting, age and dimension of stumps and the site.    3. Conifer sprouts     A study of the way and the conditions under which the different kinds of  conifers are able to sprout.    4. Stump decay    A study of the causes of stump decay and the way to prevent it.    Finally several subjects for research are suggested in connection with the  regeneration of coppice.
