This environmental science research aimed to study soil quality affecting the density of Molineria latifolia in rubber plantations in Trang Province. The study focused on soil physical characteristics, soil moisture, soil temperature, soil nutrients, and other indicators
of soil quality, as well as the density of Molineria latifoliain randomly selected study areas.The results showed that the soil in the rubber plantation had a granular structure, with an average pH value of 8.16, average light intensity of 416.66, average soil moisture of 10%,
and average soil temperature of 28.16°C. The mineral content in the soil ranged from low to slightly low.
