Silvicultural and economic assessment of the European beaver’s (castor fiber) activity

Research works on the consequences of the European beaver’s reacclimatization are becoming highly demanded lately. Moreover, the economic assessment of plant resources (defining their value in money terms) is gaining great practical importance. In this work silvicultural and economic assessment of the European beaver’s activity has been given. The activity of the European beaver causes silvicultural and economic damage to forestry. In addition, weakening the forests’ protective function takes place.
