  abstract = {{T}he purpose of this study is to precise the conditions of agricultural reclamation of tepetate in the eastern part of the {M}exico valley ({T}excoco). {T}he {T}epetate is a compact and sterile material. {T}he lack of nitrogen, carbon and the poor biological activity limit the possibility of plant development. {B}ut after the use of heavy machinery and terracing, it is possible, under certain conditions, to use this new soil for agriculture. {F}rom 1993 until 1996, we compared native soil and different treatments applied to the tepetate reclaimed, such as the deepness of the reclamation, the use of chemical/biological fertilisers, the mono-culture/associated cultures, the tillage practices of the new soil on 6 different terraces of 700 m2. {O}ne of our goals was to find the best ways to use the new tepetate soils as real agricultural soils. {T}he conclusions complete those of previous works. {I}t is necessary to use a cereal of small seeds (wheat, barley...) in association with a leguminous, especially the {M}edicago polimorfa, the first year of cultivation. {T}he use of corn is possible since the second year, but with a high quantity of fertilisers, especially the {M}edicago polimorfa, the first year of cultivation. {T}he use of corn is possible since the second year, but with a high quantity of fertilisers, especially of nitrogen. {I}t is also important to supply those elements in two or three applications instead of one. {I}t is always better to use association than monoculture. {I}n the case of corn, the association with string bean is excellent, while it is possible but risky with red bean. {T}he action of the manure is not very efective if it is not complemented at the moment of the seeding with some synthetical fertilisers. {T}he best depth for tepetate reclamation is 40-50 cm. {I}n fact, in this regions, the main problem is not really the condition of reclaiming of the tepetates but the poor quantities and the unpredictable distribution of precipitations during the rainy season.
