The growth of forest tree species planted along road sides, canal banks and railway tract has been correlated with the soil attributes in Alluvial soil zone of Midnapore district, West Bengal. Some of the sites having better nutritional status accelerate the growth of some selected species. On the basis of the results some quick growing species for Social Forestry programme and range of soil characteristics most suitable for optimum growth of plants in a given climatic condition have been recommended.

Some of the sites having better nutritional status accelerate the growth of some selected species. On the basis of the results some quick growing species for Social Forestry programme and range of soil characteristics most suitable for optimum growth of plants in a given climatic condition have been recommended.
