Preventing and managing erosion. Programs to control erosion in Queensland began in the 1950s and have been very successful. The 3 main principles to control erosion are to: use land according to its capability. protect the soil surface with some form of cover. control runoff before it develops into an erosive force.
In rural areas the first line of defense is to maintain land cover and prevent soil erosion in the first place. The second line of defense is to trap the material before it reaches the stream network (known as sediment control).n rural areas the first line of defense is to maintain land cover and prevent soil erosion in the first place.
