Here is an example of using your data to split it into the subsets and
then computing a summary of each subset. You have to remember that
what is returned from 'split' is a 'list' of 'data.frames' that as the
subsets that you want and then use use 'lapply' to process each of the
subsets in the list.
> df <- read.table("C:\\Documents and Settings\\kon9407\\My
> Documents\\Downloads\\Baumdaten_aufbereitet (1).csv"
+ , sep = ';'
+ , as.is = TRUE
+ , header = TRUE
+ )
> # split the data into a list of dataframe
> df.s <- split(df, list(df$Plot..ID., df$Baumart), drop = TRUE)
> head(names(df.s), 20)

What is the problem that you are trying to solve?
Tell me what you want to do, not how you want to do it.
