Aiding Soil Erosion in SubUrban Areas
Modern Challenges
Industrial agricultural practices
Soil degradation
Loss of bio diversity
Soil Compaction
Deforestation
Impacts on biodiversity
Loss of soil stability
Urbanization
Loss of green spaces
Compact and degradation
Soil Conservation Practices
Nitrogen Fixers
Plants to help convert nitrogen in the air to be useable in the soil
Deep Rooted Plants
Plants to help break up soil for greater water and air absorption
Terracing
Contour farming
Erosion Control blankets
reduce soil erosion on sloping landscapes
help slow down water flow, trap sediment, and promote soil stabilization, particularly in areas prone to erosion
Implementing green infrastructure
incorporate green infrastructure elements
Ex. bioswales
Ex. vegetated swales to manage stormwater runoff and reduce soil erosion
Ex. rain gardens
help slow down and filter runoff, allowing water to infiltrate into the soil and replenish groundwater resources.
Planting Vegetation
Native Vegetation
Grass
Shrubs
Trees
helps stabilize soil and prevent erosion in suburban landscapes
Incorporating diverse plant species promotes biodiversity and enhances ecosystem resilience
Educating Homeowners
Increasing awareness and education
Providing resources
Workshops
Outreach programs on Soil Health
empowers residents to take proactive steps in protecting soil resources in their communities.
