The objective of this study was to determine the effect of soil planted with rice and longan to the amount of Soil Organic Matter (SOM) and Permanganate-Oxidizable Carbon (POXC), including the relationship between SOM and POXC which could serve as a soil quality indicator. The experimental factorial in Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) by 2 factors the frits were land used of soils plants in Maetang, Sansai, Doisaket, Phrao and Sarapee districts, and second were paddy soil and longan soil. Results of the study found that average SOM, POXC content and Bulk density (Bd) of soils planted to longan were 2.65%, 1.0976 g/kg and 1.22 g/cm3 much higher than of paddy soil were 2.45%, 1.0797 g/kg and 1.14 g/cm3, respectively. Relationship between SOM with POXC of paddy soil in the five districts was shown to have a clearly close correlation (r), similarly. Meanwhile, Bd in Maetang districts was the highest. SOM decomposition from organic material contains carbon components that was easily decomposable (POXC). The results from soil tillage cultivated and added chemical fertilizer was led to increased SOM decomposition which POXC was indicator essential on affect quality of soil and for POXC test kits should be developed to measure of soil quality in field soil.
