Daftar Isi:
- The effect of Ureaformuldehyde (UF) soil conditioner on prevented erosion on Red Yellow Podzolic Soil was studied in this experiment. Soil samples were taken from the surface (S) and subsurface(B) layers. The length of the slope was50 cm and the intensity of rainfall, applied was 50 mm/ha. This experiment was carried out at 33% slope degree. This experiment was conducted in laboratory using a rainfall simulator equipment. The result of this experiment pointed that the UF soil conditioner could reduce the erosion processes i.e splash and runoff erosion on both surface and subsurface soil sampies.The influence of soil conditioner on surface soil was greater than on sub-surface soil. It means that surface soil is less suceptible to erosion than sub-surface soil.
