The state of a beech stand is analyzed from the aspect of stability and production level. The arguments are presented for the need of the objective definition of the stand condition by the criteria based on the characteristics of stand growth elements. This contributes to integral management procedures and their verification in the aim of optimal and stable production. The study results show that there can be significant deviations from the optimal stand condition regarding the number of trees, crown development, taper and diameter increment, which are not perceptible to the eye until the visible signs of tree devitalization when the damage cannot be repaired.
