Site resources, as the potential for the increase of the percentage of forest cover in the Vojvodina Province, Serbia, are analysed. The results of the analysis show that the percentage of forest cover of 6.37% is insufficient for the stability, sustainable development and biodiversity of the Vojvodina Province ecosystems. The percentage of forest cover is by far the lowest in the automorphic ecological zone, in the zone of arable farming in Vojvodina. In this zone, in the ecological sence the dominant site types are steppes or forest steppes, whose dominant edaphic representative is - chernozem, which occupies 43.6% of the total area of Vojvodina. The site potential analysis in the hydromorphic ecological zone in Vojvodina points to a high percentage of hydromorphic soils, whish occupy 44% of the total area, especially in the class of gley soils. These sites represent a significant space for the increase of the percentage of forest cover in Vojvodina, by the implementation of the biological methods of reclamation, by the establishment of forest plantations, as the most favourable form of sustainable development of such ecosystems. In addition to the above, Vojvodina has significant spaces (about 5%) of insufficiently used sites, in the halomorphic zone. Their dominant representative is solonetz (alkalinized soil), then solod, which were in the past largely covered by common oak - ash and common oak - hornbeam forests. This ecological potential is also a very significant space for the increase of the percentage of forest cover in Vojvodina.
