A study was initiated at Regional Research Station, Bijapur on performance of tree species on eroded soils of Northern dry zone of Karnataka during the year 1989. It was observed that Leucaena leucocephala, Albizia lebbeck and Acacia auriculiformis are fairly better establishing species whereas tree species like Casuarina equisetifolia and Butea monosperma are not suitable in denuded vertisols of Northern Karnataka.
