Soil properties governing soil erosion affected by cropping systems in the U.S. Pacific Northwest

▶ Long-term dryland alternate no-tillage cropping systems. ▶ Their effects on soil physical properties, surface characteristics and soil erodibility. ▶ Soil aggregates, wetness, strength, roughness, crusting, residue cover and biomass. ▶ No-tillage cropping systems will reduce soil erosion in the inland Pacific Northwest.
