RUSLE2

RUSLE2 (Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation 2) is a computer-based model used to estimate how much soil erosion occurs on a specific land area due to rainfall and runoff. It considers factors like rainfall intensity, land slope, soil type, crop cover, and farming practices to predict annual soil loss. This helps land managers design strategies to reduce erosion, protect soil health, and maintain productivity. RUSLE2 is an updated and more detailed tool that improves upon earlier models, providing more accurate and useful information for sustainable land management.
