Reduce Erosion and Preserve Topsoil

Land degradation has increased around the world as our human activities pollute or degrade the quality of soil, affecting not only food production but the overall ecosystems. What can we do locally to preserve our soil?

Plant large plants such as trees and hedges to reduce wind speed.
Minimize soil compaction by create permanent walkways and encouraging people to stay on them.
