USLE (Universal Soil Loss Equation)
The Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE) estimates how much soil is likely to be washed away from land over time due to rainfall and runoff. It considers factors like rainfall intensity, soil type, slope, land cover, and management practices. By analyzing these, USLE helps predict soil erosion risks, guiding farmers and land managers in implementing methods to reduce erosion, maintain soil health, and protect the environment. It’s a valuable tool for sustainable land use planning and conservation efforts.
