Description :
Soil erosion in cultivated fields frequently occurs on the loess cover of Hesbaye (Belgium). To assess the magnitude of this phenomenon, various observations have been made: pedological studies, importance of deposition in differents sites, measurement of rills development after heavy rains, amount of sediments arriving in gutters on experimental plots. Amongst the main factors influencing erosion, more data are required especially on soil properties and the influence of plant cover during successive stages of growth.
