Soil erosion due to impact of rainfall and runoff and the consequent removal of fertile top soil is a major mode of land degradation in the country. The rapid decline in land to man ratio is a serious cause of concern and is a bane to increase productivity of arable land. . The paper suggests important options for maintenance or amelioration of soil physical Properties, improving soil moisture, reducing runoff, soil loss and help in conserving the soil depending upon slope steepness, soil types, cropping sequences and climatic conditions for a location. These practices have improved the crop productivity in the erosion prone areas.
