Conservation Practice on Steeplands to Minimize Runoff and Improve Soil Health

To goal of this project was to protect he soil from erosion caused by weather conditions, taking into consideration the soil class, geographical area and, specifically, a proper land engineering design, especially on steeplands. This project provided data to enable the promotion of sound strategies to reduce soil erosion, improve soil quality through enhancing the soil physical, biological and chemical conditions on steepland. The project also aimed to make an essential contribution to food security and protection of agroecosystems to demonstrate soil erosion control, soil quality conservation practices and crop yield improvements on steepland.
