Soil Erosion Caused By Agriculture. Natural- Or Industrial-Related Issue. While it is a natural process caused by the weather it is also caused by human activity and it can cause harm to agricultural processes when it occurs rapidly and excessively. The share of land in this category declined by. Sometimes the erosion control practices like cover crops cropping system etc.
Approximately 116 of all erosion-prone land is estimated to have been affected by moderate or severe soil erosion more than 5 tonnes per hectare per year in 2016 in the EU-27 Figure 1. As a result the lack of land cover causes increased rates of soil erosion. In the process of soil erosion three distinct actions are involved. Pimentel et al 2015. This issue has been exacerbated by the use of high-end technological equipment. Sometimes the erosion control practices like cover crops cropping system etc.
Trees and vegetation cover help to hold the soil particles together thereby reduces the erosive effects of.
As a result the lack of land cover causes increased rates of soil erosion. Lal et al 2010. This research presents a step forward in the mapping and quantification of soil erosion and sedimentation at agricultural plot scales caused by overland flow and concentrated surface runoff as distinguished from measurements at small sample plots or estimations by prediction models. The agricultural aspect of soil erosion is well known since the problems of yield production and transport are present in almost all branches of water management. Farmers are often not aware of soil erosion and sedimentation and do not protect their fields against this issue. It is in Asia Africa and South America that the erosion hits the highest.
