Conservation Plan). This objective will be met by defining where different agricultural practices can be implemented and yield an erosion rate of 5.0 tons/ac-yr or less (i.e. the soil loss tolerance). In this analysis four cropping systems (landuse types) will be addressed (imagine you are in Iowa): - corn-soybean rotation, conventional tillage (C factor = 0.35) - corn-soybean rotation, conservation tillage (C factor = 0.25) - Corn-oats rotation, conventional tillage (C factor = 0.14) - established pasture or woodland (C factor = 0.01)
