Soil erosion is a worldwide problem that causes major environmental damage, including lost agricultural productivity due to sedimentation (severe silt & water runoff from finely pulverized soil) and its polluted waterways, and costs billions of dollars per year.

Protecting the soil from eroding is the major concern in managing soil resources.These photographs of soil erosion are intended to introduce you to many of the conservation practices used to sustain soil resources.

This collection of erosion images, including access to on–line resources that focus on soil resources in agricultural areas and various environmental sciences including ecology and soil science are gratefully and humbly acknowledged.
