The earthworms’ abundance is usually one of the main indicators healthy and productive soils. However, agricultural management practices affect earthworm population activities. Although there a lot information that shows relation between land use/land cover change earthworms activity, very little known about these effects under tea cultivation. Thus current study was done to determine long-term...
