Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Universal Equation for Predicting Rainfall-Erosion Losses: An Aid to Conservation Farming in Humid Regions Ars scientists have developed a soil-loss predicting equation that promises to be a significant contribution to safe, productive use of the Nation's soil. The equation's chief merit is versatility-it can be used wherever rain causes significant erosion losses. Its value in predicting longtime, localized soil losses has been established. It can be used to define the conservation practices needed for a given field to limit soil losses to tolerable levels. It provides a mathematical approach to conservation farm planning. Research is continuing to improve the equation, to increase the accuracy of its factors, and to extend its scope and usefulness. This report describes how research into the factors of rainfall erosion has resulted in the development of a practical equation. Also, it explains how the equation works.
