The paper examines the effects of erosion control works performed in the Palojska River Basin, based on a comparative analysis of erosion intensities in 1953 and 2016. Intensive processes of erosion in the basin were reduced by performing technical works in the channel and biological and technical works on the slopes. The effects of the works conducted, accompanied by changes in the land use and socio-demography, are manifested in the reduction of the erosion coefficient from Z = 1.02 (surface excessive erosion) in 1953 to Z = 0.28 (mixed weak erosion) in 2016 and in the reduction of the sediment yield and transport in the basin.
