Abstract
Conducting a retrospective analysis of a landscape-ecological approach to the recultivation of disturbed lands showed that the recultivation technologies have developed from an agricultural direction to a landscape-ecological one, taking into account natural and climatic features and the focus on reducing environmental risks. The forest-oriented recultivation seems to be a promising way to eliminate the accumulated environmental damage formed during the development of mineral deposits. It is shown that successful forest recultivation of disturbed lands has local feautures and is associated with the restoration of the structural and functional integrity of landscape and ecological complexes. Pilot work on reforestation on dumps is recommended to be carried out with minimal costs for the technical stage of recultivation. It has been determined that woody plants deposit toxic chemical elements and reduce the level of secondary environmental pollution. The preference for forest reclamation of anthropogenic landscapes is associated with the restoration of their biological productivity and restrictions on the agricultural use of disturbed lands.
