Vegetative Stabilization
Vegetative stabilization is a method used to prevent soil erosion and promote land restoration by establishing plant cover. This technique involves planting native vegetation, which helps to anchor the soil with their roots, reducing the impact of wind and water on the surface. The plants also improve soil health by enhancing organic matter and promoting biodiversity.
In addition to erosion control, vegetative stabilization can improve water quality by filtering pollutants and reducing runoff. This approach is often employed in areas affected by landslides, construction, or agricultural practices, making it a valuable tool for sustainable land management and environmental conservation.
