In September 1933, the Soil Erosion Service, which later became the Soil Conservation Service, was created in the United States Department of the Interior (Simms, 1970). The next month on October 10, 1933, the first soil erosion control project of the Soil Erosion Service was established in Coon Valley, Wisconsin (Geiger and Keller, 1970). 

Researchers working for the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station developed the stubble-mulch or crop residue mulch practice, a highly effective method of soil erosion control (Douley and Russel, 1939). Stubble mulching used subsurface tillage implements that left crop residues on the soil surface and provided some protection against wind and water erosion (Zingg and Whitfield, 1957). 

Standard oilseed crops are not often suitable to marginal lands where factors such as low moisture, low fertility, and saline soils play an important role in the possible crop to be grown. In recent years, there has been increasing interest in developing agronomic systems with low requirements for fertilizer, pesticides, and energy, which provide better soil erosion control than conventional systems. Camehna can grow in these extreme conditions and provide oilseed with enhanced nutritional value (59, 60). 

Less Soil Erosion Controlled irrigation of the field leads to less sol erosion problems. 

Soil erosion control. Soil erosion and runoff are serious land degradation problems in arid and semiarid regions caused either by rain or wind. It is a significant environmental problem for agricultural lands that results in destruction and eventual abandonment of the land and the loss of civiUzation itself. Sediment in runoff from agricultural landfiUs in reservoirs and rivers endangers aquatic life and reduces soil productivity. Chemicals transported with the sediment may cause water quaUty problems in lakes and streams. Land classification... 

Jute geo-textile is another product with a potentially large-scale application. It can have several uses soil erosion control, vegetation consolidation, agromulching materials, and road pavement construction.
