Mistletoe (Viscum album L.) is a semi-parasitic plant, and in moderate abundance, it does not pose a lethal threat to a tree. However, recent droughts have made a heavy impact on forests, and in recent years, mistletoe began to appear on a larger scale in regions and in places where it has never been a threat before. The main purpose of this research is to carry out a large-scale mistletoe inventory in central Poland for assessing the number of mistletoe on individual trees and in the stands, as well as to test a new inventory method adapted to Polish conditions. It is based on random sample plots, each consisting of 15 trees on which the impact of mistletoe is assessed. On every sample plot, the mistletoe occurrence, location in the crown, estimate of the percentage within the crown, and the number of mistletoe on a tree are assessed. In addition, for further analysis, information about stands (forest habitat type, site index) as well as measured trees (age, diameter, Kraft class, crown length, loss of assimilation apparatus, crown type) levels is recorded. Research undertaken in Kozienice Forest (100 km south from Warsaw) took into account 100 sample plots on which 1500 trees were assessed. Preliminary results show that 16% of trees are infected by mistletoe, more than 25% of which are infected heavily by more than 6 specimens.
