The paper takes degraded quaternary red soil in Jiangxi province as the object of the study. The soil physical property and chemical property of 9 kinds of rehabilitated forests 10-year were investigated. The research results were described as follows: (1) Soil organic matter
total nitrogen
available nitrogen
total phosphorus and available phosphorus are increased obviously. The increase in soil organic matter was the most evident.So do soil total potassium and available potassium.(2) The amount of soil organic matter and total nitrogen decreased obviously with decreasing of soil depth
the amount of available phosphorus
available potassium
available nitrogen decreased slowly
and the change of total phosphorus
total potassium was not obvious with soil depth.(3) Soil bulk density
non-capillary porosity decreased in large degree
and capillary porosity
capillary moisture capacity increased in different degree of different rehabilitated forest. The change of total porosity of different rehabilitated forest were more obvious than that of other physical property.
