INNOVATIVE NURSERIES IN THE NEW CONDITIONS OF GROWING PLANTING MATERIAL

Abstract

The article examines the role of innovative forest and horticultural nurseries in the sustainable development of Kyrgyzstan under conditions of climate change and increasing anthropogenic pressure. State programs, regulatory documents, and the historical experience of introducing tree species are analyzed. Particular attention is given to the degradation of mountain, juniper, and walnut–fruit forests, as well as to the shortage of high-quality planting material for reforestation and urban greening. The paper presents the results of long-term scientific research and practical projects focused on the establishment of innovative nurseries, the use of introduced species, bioreclamation of degraded lands, and the application of modern agrotechnological methods. Their ecological, social, and economic significance for climate change adaptation, biodiversity enhancement, and sustainable development of mountain and lowland areas of the republic is demonstrated.
