how does the vegetation prevent soil erosion
Answers
Explanation:
Plants seeds of plants with strong roots in areas where the soil is bare. The extra roots will act as stabilizers and hold the topsoil in place. Grasses are the perfect option for this kind of solution, and they add some lush greenery to the garden.
Explanation:
The probability of soil erosion increases if the soil has little or no vegetative cover (plants, grasses, crop residue or trees). Plants and residue cover aid by protecting the soil from the effects of raindrops and splash, slowing down the movement of runoff and allowing any excess surface water to infiltrate the soil. Plants have extensive root systems assist to “grab onto” soil and keep it bound together, reducing displacement. These roots also help to stabilise embankments and slopes, limiting the risk of landslides. You can see this when you pulled plants such as weeds, vegetables or even grass out of the ground as the soil clumps to the roots. Vegetation that completely covers the soil and intercepts all falling raindrops on or close to the surface are the most effective in controlling soil erosion.
