This part of BS 3936 specifies requirements for forest nursery stock of a size suitable for planting or replanting of woodlands, woodland landscapes and land required for other purposes involving trees such as production of Christmas trees and production of biomass.
It also specifies requirements for planting stock of poplars and willows.
BS 3936-4 is relevant to the supply of the young trees and shrubs for planting in woodland that falls within the scope of the Forest Reproductive Material (FRM) Regulations [1]. It is not limited to such uses and can be applied to similar plants supplied for any woodland or landscape project.
It includes specifications for plant description, plant dimensions, health and condition, labelling, and packaging and storage, both for field-grown and for cell-grown plants.
Requirements specified for plants being grown for sale or for transfer through market processes include: naming their origin and provenance or variety and/or cultivar; age and the cultural system under which they are raised; dimensions, including height or length, diameter at a specified point or in relation to a given height; condition (health); and care when supplying stock to the planter.
