The Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE) and the Science of Sustainability
The USLE is a model that predicts the long-term average annual rate of erosion on a field slope based on the parameters of rainfall pattern, soil type, topography, crop system, and management practices.
It is used toThe Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE) The Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE) assess the sustainability of agricultural practices and to develop strategies for soil conservation.
