%X <p>The paper describes the results of a fertilization experiment, in which transplants of Scots pine (<em>Pinus sylvestris</em> L.) and Norway spruce (<em>Picea abies</em> (L.) H. Karst.) were fertilized with various doses of fine-ground copper rock phosphate (33% P<sub>2</sub>O<sub>5</sub>, 4% Cu) placed direct in the planting hole. The experiment was made in northeast Finland on a clear-cut, burnt-over and furrowed moraine heath. The fertilization increased especially the survival and condition of the Scots pines and increased to some extent also the height growth of the plants. The spruce survived better than the pines.</p>
