Study of erosion processes on agricultural lands of the Prokhladnensky municipal district of the Kabardino-Balkarian Republic

Approaches to the study of erosion processes on agricultural lands are presented, taking into account regional characteristics. The proposed approaches were developed on the basis of the results of many years of research conducted on specific objects with certain natural and anthropogenic conditions. In addition, these approaches have been implemented on certain territorial objects of the Kabardino-Balkarian Republic with a detailed study of natural and anthropogenic conditions. The identified trends provide an opportunity to assess the sustainability of land use and the efficiency of agricultural land use.
