Conteúdo: | Water erosion in the Cordillera Central of the Dominican Republic is severe because of cultivation by small subsistence farmers of soils on slopes from 20 to 50 percent. Slash-and-burn techniques are used to clear the land, followed by clean cultivation of mixed annual crops. Conservation practices are seldom used, although conservationists have been experimenting with a number of cross-slope practices, such as rock walls, grass strips, and hillside ditches. Terraces are not suited to these soils because of their shallow depth (often less than 30 centimeters).
