The invention relates to artificial composite wood, in particular to a plant fiber polymer wood and a method for making the same. The plant fiber polymer wood is made form the following materials in percentage by weight: 50 to 85 percent of plant fiber powder, 10 to 45 percent of plastic resin, 0.5 to 1.5 percent of coupling agent, 2 to 5 percent of foaming agent, 0.5 to 1.5 percent of blowing promoter, 1 to 2 percent of plasticizer, 0.5 to 1 percent of nucleating agent, and 0.5 to 3 point of lubricating agent, wherein the plant fiber powder is one or a plurality of kinds selected form wood meal, powdered rice hull, powdered straw( corn stalk, sorghum stalk, wheat straw, straw, sunflower stalk, egg plant stalk, bean stalk, haulm, hemp stalk and other crop stalks), brushwood powder, weed powder, and peanut and seed shell powder. The artificial composite wood has the characteristics o saving wood material, allowing for recycling, contributing to environment protection, along with high strength, low cost, long service life. The process is simple, scientific and reasonable.
