The article highlights the results of research on the state of forest nectar-pollinating plantations and prospects for the development of forestry and beekeeping in the system of the regional eco-network of Eastern Podillia. One of the conditions of Ukraine's European integration is the implementation of measures to comprehensively preserve the biolandscape diversity of the regions, as well as the implementation of greening of production, in particular, forestry on the basis of the inexhaustible use of natural resources. Forestry is characterized by a wide range of production of raw materials, including nectar and pollen, the products of which are processed by honey bees (honey, bee pollen, royal jelly, etc.) are in high demand among the population. Providing their food needs at the expense of forest nectar-polliniferous, bees also maintain ecological balance by preserving their existence. In terms of the forest fund of Eastern Podillia, there are 215,488.1 hectares of land, of which 61% are operational forests, 15% are protective forests, 17% are recreational and health forests, and 7% are nature conservation, scientific, historical and cultural forests. The area of nectarbearing plantations is from 0.8 ha, and mixed plantations - from 0.3 ha to 5.7 ha. Nectaro-pollenbearing forest plantations of Eastern Podillia are represented by 37 introduced tree species. The main nectar- and pollen-bearing plantations of Eastern Podillia include: linden, broadleaved linden, white acacia, varieties of maples, from the nectar and pollen of which bees produce both fodder and commercial honey. Other pollinators provide the bees with a supporting bribe, which makes it possible to provide these insects with food.
