Abstract
In connection with the significant reduction of arable lands in the taiga zone and their overgrowth with tree and shrub vegetation, the study of this process becomes relevant. The process of restoration of forest phytocenoses on the lands out of active agricultural use is influenced by a large number of factors. The most significant factors are: the age of fallow land, soil conditions, pyrogenic effects. Overgrowing of post-agrogenic territories is a complex dynamic process and under the influence of the above factors, in each case, a certain plant association will be formed. Thus, on the plots with the fallow fields of 25 years without pyrogenic impact, dense young trees with predominance of willow and a low diversity of species in the living ground cover and low projective cover will be formed. On a plot of the same fallow age, but subjected to pyrogenic impact, there will be much more sparse woody young growth dominated by willow, but conifers appear in the composition in addition to deciduous species. The living ground cover of this site is characterized by high species composition and high projective cover. The plots at the initial stage of overgrowth, with a fallow period of 5 years, are characterized by the predominance of birch and the absence of conifers in the tree layer, as well as a fairly high species diversity of living ground cover, but by the projective coverage will be observed a strong dominance of meadow bluegrass. The study of the process of natural regeneration of forest vegetation on post-agrogenic lands in the future will allow to develop a dynamic typology of these areas, to build a clear successional scheme of changes in plant associations. That, in its turn, will make it possible to create a mathematical spatial model of former agricultural land overgrowth from the moment of withdrawal from use to the formation of a full-fledged forest phytocoenosis.
