ABSTRACT
In arid and semi-arid areas land rehabilitation was potentially affecting from poor survival rate due to moisture stress and short rainfall duration. The objective of the study was to evaluate and compare survival rate and growth performance of selected indigenous tree species (Ziziphus spina-christi, Fadherbia albida, Tamarinadus indica and Acacia amara) at different pot size (8 cm, 10 cm, 12cm and 16 cm diameter size of polythen tube). The produced seedlings were transplanted to abergelle agricultural research station which found at gereb-giba. The sapling monitored for one year through recording their survival rate and height at every three month. The difference in polythen tube size doesn’t show significant different for all saplings. However, without considering the polythen tube size Tamarinadus indica and Acacia amara indicates better survival rate in the site. The plant height also doesn’t show significant difference for the diameter size across all transplanted species. This result suggests there could be a holistic study from seed collection to post plantation management activities.
