Impacts of soil conservation techniques on soil erodibility on an Alfisol [PDF]
Soil erosion is a serious challenge for sustainable crop production. Alfisols in Nigeria are easily prone to soil degradations which have significantly reduced soil productivity, crop yield and increased cost of production.

Pulp and paper mill sludges decrease soil erodibility. [PDF]
AbstractDeclining carbon (C) content in agricultural soils threatens soil fertility and makes soil prone to erosion, which could be rectified with organic soil amendments. In a 4‐yr field trial, we made a single application of three different organic sludges from the pulp and paper industry and studied their effects on cereal yield, soil C content, and

Soil Properties Governing Erodibility of Cuban Soils: A Univariate Erodibility Equation
Accelerated water erosion is a major soil degradation process that affects soil and water quality. In Cuba, specifically, more than 40% of agricultural lands are affected by severe erosion problems.

Soil Erodibility: Influencing Factors and Its Relation to Soil Fertility in Nawungan, Selopamioro, Bantul Regency [PDF]
Soil erodibility is used to determine the sensitivity of the soil to erosion that occurs on dry, sloping land. Slope is a factor that influences the erodibility index and can affect land productivity. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the erodibility

SPATIAL VARIABILITY OF SOIL ERODIBILITY AT EL HAMMAM CATCHMENT, NORTHEAST OF ALGERIA [PDF]
The concept of erodibility has gained a great importance in the field of soil erosion modelling and applications of soil conservation. Soil erodibility factor has become one of the key factors which determine soil particles resistance to be detached by

Soil erodibility in European mountain beech forests [PDF]
Forests in Europe are currently not endangered by soil erosion. However, this can change with climate change or with intensified forest management practices. Using a newly established network of plots in beech forests across Europe, the aims of this study were to (i) distinguish soil properties and erodibility indices in relation to bedrock, (ii ...
