Wind erosion management: a guide for Limestone Coast landholders on managing soils to prevent erosion – SA (Factsheet)
This factsheet from the Limestone Coast Landscape Board provides landholders with information on managing soils to prevent wind erosion. It outlines the causes and impacts of wind erosion, including loss of topsoil, reduced agricultural productivity, and infrastructure damage, with a focus on the Limestone Coast region of South Australia. The guide details management practices such as maintaining adequate ground cover, minimising soil disturbance, and implementing erosion control measures. While the content focuses on South Australia, the information is applicable to other Australian regions with similar soil conditions [PDF 820 KB, 4 pages].#
