Certification introduction in forestry sector in Serbia has significantly improved the environmental approach in forest practice and management. Process is successfully implemented in Public Enterprise "Vojvodinašume" and "Srbijašume". Main goal is reduction of conflict between economic forestry and need to preserve biodiversity in forests. Improvement is evident in monitoring development of certain bird fauna representatives and public informing, nests mapping of rare raptors and black storks, including disturbances reduction in reproduction period. Regenerated areas are left by individual autochthonous trees and shrubs, as assistance in biodiversity preservation and landscape area structure. Neverthels, there are several problems included excessive use of chemicals in forestry which are harmful for biodiversity, in intensified use of machinery in forest activities, in unified classification of natural forests and in planting monocultures of allochthonous clones. Paper analyses advantages of introducing forest certification and existing problems, including some proposals of adequate measures for reaching compromise, particularly with regards on improvement of forest bird fauna.
