Acid sulphate land is an rarely used land for agricultural crop cultivation because it has a serious limiting factor, but has the potential to be planted with Moringa plant, because Moringa plant tolerance to high acidity. For the business certainty, it is need to be evaluation the land suitability of Moringa plant in acid sulphate land as the use of wetland is not optimal. This research was conducted in Barito Kuala, Tabukan sub-district for the first year. This research uses a survey method by taking several soil samples with purposive sampling which is then analyzed in the laboratory, then interpreted whether it is suitable for Moringa plant so that it can be recommended and socialized to the public for cultivated in acid sulphate tidal land.
