Erosion, Controlling Irrigation-Induced [PDF]
, 2005 Erosion is the greatest threat to agricultural sustainability. Most irrigation is on fragile arid soils that have enormous crop yield potential when irrigated. However, that yield potential is easily lost if the thin veneer of "topsoil" is eroded (1). Erosion prevention on irrigated land is, arguably, more important than on rainfed land.
