Soil loss from an oil palm plantation

The Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE) was applied to predict annual soil loss from an oil palm plantation. Parameters of the (ISLE used to generate the relevant raster layersfor soil erosion spatial modelling in the GIS are rainfall erosivity; • slope length/gradient; • cover-conservation me...
