    • Continuous Replanting Could Degrade Soil Health in Short-Rotation Plantation Forestry
    Authors: Bose, Tanay; Hammerbacher, Almuth; Slippers, Bernard;  Advisor: -;  Co-Author: - (2023)

    Continuous replanting of land with the same or similar plant species can result in the accumulation of harmful soil microbes, which can lead to crop failure. In this review, we explore the influence of constant replanting on the health of short-rotation forestry soil, focusing on the accumulation of deleterious microbes and the decline of beneficial microbes. We also suggest possible practical solutions to address this problem and consider future research that could be conducted to better understand and reduce the build-up of deleterious soil microbes in short-rotation forestry soil.
