Thesis Abstract

<p>Soil erosion is a significant environmental issue that affects agricultural productivity and ecosystem health. This study aims to assess the effectiveness of various soil erosion control measures in agricultural landscapes to mitigate erosion and preserve soil quality. The research will focus on evaluating the performance of erosion control techniques such as contour plowing, terracing, cover cropping, mulching, and vegetative buffer strips. The study will involve field investigations, data collection, and analysis of erosion rates, sediment deposition, and soil properties in areas where these erosion control measures have been implemented. Additionally, the research will consider factors such as slope gradient, soil type, land management practices, and rainfall patterns to determine the most suitable erosion control measures for different agricultural landscapes. The outcomes of this study will provide valuable insights into the effectiveness and practicality of soil erosion control measures, enabling farmers and land managers to make informed decisions to protect soil resources and promote sustainable agriculture.<br></p>
