Sažetak
Norway spruce was highlighted as a best tree species for afforestation among all other autochthonous tree species in Croatia already in the twentieth century. It is especially suitable for afforestation of fern and heath areas in the central part of the country. Diverse management, biotic and abiotic influences, especially climatic disturbances (e.g. storms), resulted in significant economic losses and negative environmental consequences in spruce culture management in sessile oak vegetation belt. Since knowledge on conversion of such forest cultures is scarse this research provides basic knowledge of current conversion needs, risks, methods, and site preparation techniques. This is especially important since the need for the establishment of forest cultures will be emphasized in the future.
