Abstract: In this paperare, soil physico-chemical properties and enzyme activity of economic forest lands in red soil zone, Southern China were studied. A field experiment was conducted in three economic forest lands (Pinus, Eucalyptus and Honey Pomelo). The data show that the values of soil organic carbon, active organic carbon C/N and enzyme activity in Pinus forest lands are consistently higher than those in Eucalyptus and Honey Pomelo forest lands, and the values of total N, basic nitrogen,total P and available phosphorus are no significant difference among Pinus, Eucalyptus and Honey Pomelo forest lands. Experimental results show that, compared with Pinusforest lands, high intensity cultivation and fertilization methods have accelerated the decomposition rate of soil organic matter and reduced the soil fertility and enzyme activity in Eucalyptus and Honey Pomelo forest lands.
