**7. In-situ (in site) economic impact on soil loss**

Different cropping, tillage, management systems often change the structurally related soil's physical and biological properties. Compaction caused by farm implements and grazing animals increases soil bulk density and reduces infiltration rates. Furthermore, the foliar cover [18] of live plants or crop residues can reduce water runoff by reducing the impact of rainfall on bare patches, reducing the detrimental impact of rainfall, crusting, and ultimately reducing soil water evaporation [21].
