Soil erosion is the natural process in which the topsoil of a field is carried away by physical sources such as wind and water.” The following are the important steps taken to control soil erosion: 1. Afforestation: The best way to conserve soil is to increase the area under forest. Indiscriminate felling of the trees should be stopped and efforts should be made to plant trees in new areas. 2. Checking shifting cultivation: Checking and reducing shifting cultivation will reduce soil erosion.  3. Contour Ploughing:  If ploughing done at right angles to the hill slope, following the natural contours of the hill, the ridges and furrows break the flow of water down the hill. This will prevents soil erosion.
