Abstract
The Tamarix tree is a drought-resistant and salt-tolerant species that
grows in arid and semi-arid environments. This tree usually has an
average height. It has slender branches, small needle-like leaves,
which equip it with the ability to adapt to unfavorable climatic
conditions. Its deep and extensive root system also enables access to
underground water. This species is one of the native species of
Afghanistan and has grown in most regions. This research is of a
field or survey type using a systematic questionnaire distribution of
150 questionnaires, and the collected data has been arranged in the
form of a scientific article. The main goal of this research is to
identify the destructive factors affecting this tree and its role in the
environment in the Kashm district. The destructive factors for this
tree include converting covered areas to agricultural land, cutting
wood for fuel, animal grazing, and natural factors. This tree's role in
the environment includes protecting soils along rivers, improving
soil quality, conserving water resources, increasing biodiversity, and
playing a significant role in stabilizing moving sands .
