The goal of this project is to reduce the rate of soil erosion and gully formation within the Kunene-North Region. Agriculture results in many adverse environmental impacts, including soil degradation. Although degradation comes in several forms; ( ... )
st prominent in this region is soil erosion by water. Topsoil is washed away, and new landforms are developed into gullies. Part of the failure to halt or reduce the rate of soil degradation has been due to poor understanding of the pattern and processes of soil degradation by the local communities.
The project aims to reduce soil erosion and improve soil cover, by using agronomic measures.
