Summary

Extract: Responses of a sample of 106 operators and 69 landlords concerning degree of soil erosion, use of conservation practices, and factors hindering adoption of selected practices in the Maple Creek Model Implementation Project (MIP) area are described. Operator and landlord views of the seriousness of soil erosion differed from SCS estimates. Few used recommended erosion control practices. Main obstacles to adoption were low levels of cost sharing in 1977 and views of the soil erosion problem
