A comparison of the soil properties of the beds and
slopes of bench terraces in Pang Prarachatan village is
summarized in Table 6. There was a tendency for the dry
density to be higher in the weed-covered terrace than in the
others, while the saturated permeability was lower in the
weed-covered terrace than in the others. There were no
significant differences in organic matter, nitrogen and
phosphorus concentrations in the soils between the terrace
beds and the slope, but slightly different among the terrace
types.
