Runoff sediment and P losses from various soil management practices: modelling in hilly slopes
Abstract This study aimed to evaluate the effect of soil management on water, sediment and P losses in slope plots in east-central Illinois, USA. Field and laboratory experiments were conducted. The soil management studied were: tillage in contour (CT), tillage in downhill (DT), no-tillage (NT) and...
