Popis: The spreading mechanization of the agricultural activities has determined, in the last decades, an enlargement of the fields generally obtained from natural landforms rearrangement without the employment of the necessary support practices. It has brought about a break in the weak equilibrium between the old agricultural practice and the geological environment, increasing on sloping fields morphogenetic processes and especially soil erosion. Therefore the evaluation of soil losses amount assumes a basic role in the agricultural planning.
