Soil erosion in agricultural systems is a very important problem to manage. Each year, about 10 million ha of cropland are lost due to wind or water erosion. Overall soil is being lost from land areas 10 to 40 times faster than the rate of soil renewal, therefore imperiling food security and the environment.

However, several techniques exist to prevent, reduce and control soil erosion. By clicking on each category, we will find some technical advises to implement such measures.
