Erosion of soil is one of the common causes of changes in the structure of the earth. This is a natural process that affects all forms of relief. In agriculture, soil erosion refers to the wear of the topsoil by natural physical forces under the influence of water, wind and others. Many other factors contribute to this erosion process, such as soil type, location, and slope length. Shrubs and plants with deep roots can be planted to prevent the destruction of the topsoil.

 Our Method  

The slope is covered with a layer of geogrid, filled with gravel and trees to obtain maximum stability and erosion control, while ensuring harmony with the landscape. After upgrading the terrain, a non-woven geotextile is installed, over which the firmly anchored units of the geogrid are expanded and filled with gravel. The plants have been planted and an irrigation system has been installed.

Advantages

  • Protection of the soil from erosion.
  • Creates a rooting layer for regeneration and better rooting of plant species.
  • Strengthen the soil to prevent the formation of gullies.
  • The volumetric geogrid allows water to pass through its three-dimensional structure, improving the penetration of water and nutrients.
  • Reduces the impact on the environment.

 

The result

The slope is stable for more than 10 years and is practically covered with vegetation and gravel, offering a natural look to the landscape. In addition, gravel has the ability to “break down the hydraulic energy of the rain”, so that the soil formed by loess under the roof of the containment system remains completely stable and no longer suffers from erosion.
