| Research Abstract |
Soil-plant system in the fast-growing Eucalyptus camaldulensis plantations were monitored for 6 years in experimental plots set on tropical waste land after tin mining and sifting cultivation. E. camaldulensis could established and grew vigorously except sand sediment area after tin mining where the root penetration was seriously inhibited by dense sand layer. In this area, mulching by Imperata grass and the clay soil dressing in transplanting hole increased the probability of establishment and the growth rate of E. camaldulensis significantly.
At least, with in one rotation time, no serious soil fertility degradation was observed in E. camaldulensis plantation. However, its high transpiration rate and water consumption will bring a deterioration of the water conditions and physical structure of the soil in loamy sand soil of northeast Thailand.
