Estimation of soil loss is critical to conservation planning. To make that estimation, use of the Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE) is prominent in Brazil. For use of the USLE, there is a shortage of data obtained according to the standard method of this model. Among the factors that compose the USLE, soil erodibility (K factor) is difficult to obtain due to the need to conduct experiments in the field for a long time under natural rainfall. Aiming to quantify […]
