Abstract
Silviculture is under pressure, as are other areas of applied science. Central specialist forest sciences, such as silviculture,growth and yield or forestry establishments etc., are losing ground due to the division made between basic and applied research and quickly losing their importance in the university landscape. It is only in the German-speaking countries that silviculture and growth and yield are two separate specialist areas and thus not taught in combination with one another. Growth and yield is a scientific basis of silviculture. In its widest sense, siliviculture is a system and can be viewed as a standard circle of diverse activities, each of which has its own scientific problems. Silviculture is an important area of research that is struggling to maintain its hold in today's rapidly changing research landscape–above all because this discipline calls for long-term research. Only long-term silvicultural research will furnish a quantifiable and objective foundation for a modern,ecologically oriented management of the forest.
