The creation of artificial plantings in the conditions of the kovylno-tipchak steppe makes it possible to form long-lasting high-density and productive plantings, however, despite the accumulated knowledge, the rate of afforestation of the steppe is hindered by the fleeting or delayed death of plantings due to the effects of droughts. Fast-growing young trees become especially vulnerable in areas with deep groundwaters. The study was conducted in green zone of Nur-Sultan, the capital of the Republic of Kazakhstan. The main value of the forests of the region lies in the creation of environmentally favorable environmental conditions, their performance of recreational, aesthetic, soil protection, erosion control, water protection, climate control and water regulation functions. Work on the study of the impact of care felling on plantings of various formations in the green zone of the city of Nursultan has not been carried out before, which determines the scientific novelty of the project.
