G1650 Conservation Tillage And Residue Management To Reduce Soil Erosion
Agricultural publication G1650 Reviewed December 2, 1993. conservation Tillage and Residue management to Reduce soil Erosion.
http://muextension.missouri.edu/explore/agguides/agengin/g01650.htm

Extractions: Department of Agricultural Engineering, University of Missouri-Columbia Crop-residue management through conservation tillage is one of the best and most cost-effective ways to reduce soil erosion. Conservation tillage and residue management may reduce machinery expenses and save soil, labor, fuel and money. Crop residues uniformly distributed over the soil surface will significantly reduce soil losses over an entire field. On terraced land, the resulting reduction in soil losses due to this residue cover can greatly reduce the cost of terrace maintenance. Two mechanisms are involved in soil erosion: soil detachment and soil transport. Most soil detachment is caused by raindrop impact, a major factor in sheet erosion. The average erosion from cropland in Missouri is about 10 tons per acre per year, equivalent to about 0.07 inches (slightly over 1/16 inch). Sheet erosion can go almost undetected for years, often causing great losses in productivity before the landowner becomes concerned. Some soil detachment is caused by flowing water, especially where water concentrates to cause gullies. Gullies created by flowing water may be either ephemeral or permanent gullies. Short-lived gullies may be filled in by heavy tillage operations but tend to reform annually in the same location.

Extractions: Drought recovery Agnote DPI-355, second edition, August 2002 Abigail Jenkins, Soils Advisory Officer, Wollongbar Introduction Soil structure and erosion Soil nutrition Long-term soil management ... Further assistance The principal aim after rain should be to get pasture or crop cover established on bare paddocks as soon as possible. This applies especially to the red soils, but is also important for the clays. Loss of effective ground cover (due to grazing or cultivation) leaves the soil highly prone to erosion by wind and water. Research by the Soil Services Available N and P levels in the soil are generally higher following a drought than in a normal season. However, most of the N and P are in the topsoil, so if erosion strips the topsoil, much of this benefit is lost. Cracking black, grey and brown clays can develop wide and deep cracks during drought. Generally speaking, their structure is as good as it is ever likely to be. On the other hand, the structure of non-cracking red loam soils generally deteriorates during drought. Topsoils can become very dry and powdery, and are highly vulnerable to erosion.

Extractions: Support to Investment: Land Management, Soil Conservation and Soil Fertility The FAO Investment Centre is assisting member governments to formulate and mobilize funding for investment projects aimed at improving land management, soil conservation and soil fertility. Enhancement and sustainable maintenance of soil fertility is of critical importance for many developing and transition countries faced with limited farming areas, poor land and water management, and nutrient-deficient soils. Farmers and policymakers alike are increasingly aware that declines in soil fertility are a primary cause of food insecurity and malnutrition, and the migration of rural people to urban areas in search of other income opportunities. The Centre is helping these countries and its partner international financing institutions to design and prepare investment projects in which communities assume the main responsibility for conservation of their environment, natural resources and biodiversity (see also Support to Investment: Safeguarding the Environment and Natural Resources ). It works closely with FAOs

Extractions: Soil resources depletion is a widespread, direct threat to the sustainability of agricultural production. Dramatic changes in soil management concepts are needed to counter the threat. This manual proposes options for such changes, addressing a very broad variety of topics related to agricultural land management ranging from chemical and physical attributes of soils, soil management concepts, mechanization and tillage, mulching and green manure, erosion control and water resources management, to concepts of participative transfer of technologies. Traditional soil management concepts are analysed and suggestions made to consider more sustainable alternatives for a conservation-effective agriculture. This manual is meant for both professors and students of universities, schools of agriculture and technical training centres, as well as for technicians involved in designing programmes, guidelines and policies related to the management and conservation of agricultural land.

Extractions: About 40 per cent of the Wellington region is erosion-prone hill country . Soil erosion can be prevented or reduced by improving the way the land is used, perhaps by planting trees, or by allowing native bush to grow in areas that are at risk from erosion. The Wellington Regional Council works with landowners to control soil erosion in both hill-country and alluvial plain environments. Individual property conservation plans are prepared for landowners and erosion control works are carried out on a cost-sharing basis with the Council. Six catchment control schemes are administered the Wellington Regional Council in consultation with local communities, and a range of works undertaken to protect community assets from soil erosion and flooding. Click on a thumbnail to view a larger picture This series of photographs shows how a highly-eroding piece of land in the Wairarapa has been repaired during a 25-year period using a mix of exotic planting and natural indigenous re-vegetation. For more information or advice on soil conservation, contact the Wellington Regional Council's Masterton office on 06-378-2484. The Wellington Regional Council also manages 3750 hectares of soil conservation reserve forests in South Wairarapa - Tauanui, Hiwinui, Rough Hill and Stoney Creek.
