Erosion removes, sifts and transports materials from soil surface and is majorly caused by the sudden or prolonged changes in the activities of water and wind

2. Techniques to Prevent Soil Erosion

3. A lot of things can be done to reduce soil erosion, a
few of which are mentioned below:

4. Plant strong rooted trees
Plant flowers, crops, trees over the affected soil.
The strong roots sourced from the plants will hold
the soil in place thereby protecting it from being
blowing away because of wind and washed away
because of rain.

5. Grow cover crops
It is ideal to grow cover crops on soil bed which
besides helping you fight soil erosion can also
enhance soil fertility, bring diversity, check weed
growth and ensures sustainability of agro
ecosystem. Legumes (beans) are a perfect
example.

6. Other ways:
 Begin contour farming, especially when you are farming
on sloped location
 You can even try terrace garden to eliminate the chances
of soil erosion and surface runoff. Rice is a wonderful crop
to grow in such a pattern since it needs a lot of water.
 Intensive cropping can also reduce soil erosion
 Use drainage canals thoughtfully in close proximity of
farms to make the water supply easy and prevent excess
water runoff.
