Agriculture. Soil erosion removes valuable top soil which is the most productive part of the soil profile for agricultural purposes. The loss of this top soil results in lower yields and higher production costs. When top soil is gone, erosion can cause rills and gullies that make the cultivation of paddocks impossible. The impacts of erosion on cropping lands include: 1  reduced ability of the soil to store water and nutrients. 2  exposure of subsoil, which often has poor physical and chemical properties.
