Wind and water erosion of non cultivated sandy soils in the Sahel: a case study in northern Burkina Faso, Africa
In the Sahel, sandy soils are widespread and support not only most of pearl millet production, the major staple crop in the region, but also forage production for livestock. Parent sediments of these soils have an aeolian origin and hence are prone to wind erosion. However, the clay content, albeit...
