Natural conditions and eco–system diversity of Serbia allow for a wide range of tree species and forests with broadleaves and mixed broadleaves stands (Quercetum frainneto–cerris).
Broadleaves dominate the forest in Serbia with 86.4% and the remaining part consists of all kinds of conifers. Mixed broadleaved and conifers stand with approximately 6.8% and 3%, respectively. Main tree species of the natural forests are beech (Fagus moesiaca), followed by oak (Quercus ssp), and other broadleaves. Natural stand of conifers are confined to the south and southeastern part of the country, with main tree species being Pinus nigra, Pinus silvestris, Picea abies and Abies alba.
Besides natural growth, Serbia pays great attention to reforestation. Plantations are spread throughout Serbia and are usually monospecific stands where species depend on the characteristics of landscape and eco–system. The plantations located in Central Serbia predominately grow coniferous species, especially pines (mainly Pinus nigra) and spruce (Picea abies) and cover two–thirds of all land dedicated for plantations.
Only a third of all plantations are dedicated to growing broadleaves. Broadleaved plantations are located in northern parts of Serbia. The flat and fertile soil of Vojvodina, crisscrossed by rivers, creates the perfect environment for poplar (Euro American black poplar clone) growth. Approximately 95% of all plantations found here are poplars. Other species grown are oak and other hardwood species.
