Abstract:

In this study, the current state of wind erosion in the Sivas Transportation Agriculture Directorate, which is an agricultural enterprise exposed to wind erosion, has been comparatively studied in two land plants with similar characteristics and grain crop. The research site found that the soil was resistant to erosion, taking into account the physical and chemical properties they possess. Mechanical stability values of the soil were above 50%. The stability index values showed the risk of wind erosion below the value of 1.5 (0-2,5 cm) in surface soil. The content of the moisture of the soil has not shown meaningful differences between the topics. A total of 6 cyclone-type sediment holders are placed in the grain and nadas fields so that they will be three-wheeled. During the study, there were three periods of erosion incident occurred. The average sediment in the grain crop parcel was 666.49 kg ha-1 year-1, while the nadas parcel was 100.71 kg ha-1 year-1. The grain farming has increased the current sediment movement in the land by about 6.6 times.
