Water and Wind Erosion

Question 4 • RMA FL-2001310-Earth/Space Science Semester 2

Which method best helps to prevent wind erosion?

Answer
A
rotating crops
B
decreasing riverbank slopes
C
more animal grazing
D
avoiding soil compaction

Explanation

Rotating crops can keep soil covered with plants or crop residue at different times, helping hold it in place against the wind. Decreasing riverbank slopes mainly addresses water erosion, while more grazing can remove protective vegetation and increase erosion. Avoiding compaction is helpful for soil health but is less direct than maintaining ground cover.
