- Date Created (ISO Standard):

- Description:
- Soil erosion is generally recognized as an environmental problem associated with agricultural production which varies by topography, climate, soils, and cropping practices. Measuring economic damage attributable to soil erosion is a complex task because of site variability and confounding technical progress in crop yields. Nationally, onsite erosion damage has been estimated at $1 . 3 billion as measured by crop productivity losses (A It and Putman, 1987).
