Description :
The aim of this research was to assess the impacts of the Atriplex plantations (1995, 2000, 2001) on soil properties in a semi-arid area located in the Marrakech province, especially on organic carbon and on the variables related to soil salinity. The results contribute to the evaluation of land restoration interventions in semi-arid degraded lands.
