It is strongly recommended to provide mechanism for safe disposal of excess runoff. Improvements in soil conditions and soil-water regime can be accomplished by runoff management techniques. Various field management techniques suitable for dry areas are described below: 1. Indigenous Techniques: a. Farm Bunding: In this technique a bund is constructed around the field using […]

Estimating the Volume of Runoff | Soil Erosion
Article shared by :
After reading this article you will learn about estimating the volume of runoff. Knowledge of the volume of runoff from a watershed is necessary to design the water storage system and surplussing arrangements. Different mathematical models that are developed to predict runoff deal mainly with precipitation characteristics affecting runoff amount and peak rates. In an […]
Measurement of Soil in the Runoff | Water Erosion
Article shared by :
After reading this article you will learn about the measurement of soil in the runoff with the help of small plots and watersheds. Small Plots: Runoff and soil loss from small rectangular plots of one soil type and one slope gradient can be collected in a tank placed at the bottom of the plot. Sometimes […]
