The methods available for gully control are – (1) Diversion of runoff, (2) Vegetative methods, (3) Construction of temporary structures, and (4) Construction of permanent structures. (1) Diversion of Runoff: Diversion of runoff is achieved by constructing diversion drains. The diversion drain is a shallow channel put across the slope above the gully. The design […]
