The production chain of tree seedlings, from seeds to sustainable plantations: An essential link for the success of reforestation and restoration programs in the context of climate change

Although the evolution of principles, procedures, and predictive abilities related to seedling quality throughout the plant production chain (i.e., from seeds to sustainable plantations) has been reviewed over the past decades in various technical and scientific publications, there is still a need to develop and integrate new and efficient practices in forest nurseries and at planting sites, in order to improve the morphophysiological quality of seedlings and saplings, and their survival and growth under different site and environmental conditions in the context of climate change. We have grouped together different scientific articles in this Special Issue of Forests, entitled “Production in Forest Nurseries and Field Performance of Seedlings”. They cover different topics relating to the seedling production chain in different countries and continents, from growing media to planting performance related to reforestation, restoration, and agroforestry programs.
