Plant management
Consider problems and solution for the
landuse. Avoid planting in case of having factors risky for failure
of crops. For the area where the irrigation and the drainage is prepared
and soil amendments are cheap and available, select plants suitable
for acid soil and in demand. |

| Acid soil area could be dig as a pond to keep aquatic animals
like a carp of the genus Puntius, a snakehead mullet. Drain the water
in the pond and scatter dolomitic limestone at the rim and the bottom
of the pond to prevent acidity of soil. |
