KONDISI FISIK TANAH HUTAN MANGROVE DI DESA DOLAGO KECAMATAN PARIGI SELATAN KABUPATEN PARIGI MOUTONG
ABSTRACT: The objective of the
research was to find out soil physical condition of Mangrove Forest in Dolago village South Parigi Subdistrict
Parigi Moutong District. The research was conducted on January to March 2016
