- Intervention effect Disc trenching reduced tree mortality at both sites.
- Intervention effect Disc trenching increased individual tree growth at both sites.
- Intervention effect Disc trenching produced higher stem numbers and tree volume per hectare after 17 years.
- Intervention effect Previous nitrogen fertilization had no significant effect on tree growth.
- Intervention effect Disc trenching reduced Cladonia rangiferina cover at Hagfors.
- Intervention effect Disc trenching increased Calluna vulgaris at Hagfors.
- Intervention effect Disc trenching shifted vegetation cover from Vaccinium vitis-idaea toward Vaccinium myrtillus at Nissafors.
- Mechanism Soil disturbance and increased shading appear to explain disc trenching effects on field layer composition.
- Recommendation The authors advise considering long term ground vegetation effects in forestry guidelines and practices.
