Abstract
Reforestation is very important in controlling land degradation and desertification. It has been established that the early diagnostics of the forest-growth conditions of soils and sustainability of forest plantations can be estimated by biogenic factors, such as the structure, dynamics, and functional activity of microbial complexes closely related to agrochemical soil indicators. The survival and sustainability of experimental forest plantations that were established in 1975 to 1978 on erosion-prone lands in the coastal zone of Shira Lake (Khakassia) have been studied. The forest growing properties of soils and the transformation of their fertility under the influence of stands have been evaluated.
