Gully erosion is the extreme stage of soil erosion. It is the process by which soil is removed by surface water runoff along the drainage lines, forming deep channels. Gully erosion washes away the fertile soil, making the soil unproductive. However, this can change with good gully management strategies which are found in documents provided on this websites.
