The using agri - stabi and lime to improve of acid sulphate soil for melaleuca and eucaliptus reforestation in Thanh Hoa, Long An province
Keywords:

The potentiality of land use on acid sulphate soil in Mekong river delta is a great for agro - forest production, however, there is 1/3 of land area with being infected by acidity whilte using the lime to soil acidity improving is not reality by high expense for transport. Yuka sangyo Co., Ltd (Japan) and Forest Science Institute of South Vietnam have cooperated to try the using Agi - stabi which is new product of Yuka sangyo Co., Ltd to improve the acid sulphate soil in Mekong river delta. The study was implimented in Thanh Hoa forest experimental station in Thanh Hoa district, Long Anprovince in March, 2002. By method of experimental field, the experiment was designed as blocks system with 3 replicates for melaleuca and 2 replicates for eucaliptuts species. Research results points that can use the Agri - stabi to reduce acidity concentration in the soil to establish the melaleuca and eucaliptus plantation, and to incread growth of trees and reduce pH of water in canals surrounding
