บทคัดย่อ (EN): The extent of teak tree plantations in Laos is still modest, but current demand by farmers to establish new teak plantations is very high. Many teak plantations have replaced upland crops managed by traditional slash and burn techniques. Farmers do not have extensive experience with tree plantations and they use different techniques, including weeding and burning to control the understorey vegetation, i.e. the vegetation layer that grows spontaneously under the trees. The large-scale expansion of teak plantations might eventually affect biodiversity and soil conservation in this region. To document farmer’s practices, we conducted interviews with farmers and made field measurements in 43 plantations in the Luang Prabang province. Our preliminary results indicate that current teak management techniques influence plant biodiversity in the understorey. Understorey suppression through burning does not have a positive effect on teak tree growth while it increases the occurrence of soil erosion indicators. Our results also indicate that maintaining the understorey is a simple practice that is likely to reduce soil erosion without reducing the growth rate of teak trees. This simple practice is also a great time saver for farmers.
