Abstract
This study was conducted to determine the soil loss/sediment yield on plots with different slopes at the Agroforestry Research and Development Farm (ARDF) under calamansi hedgerows and to determine the relationship between rainfall amount and soil loss/sediment yield on plots with various slopes under calamansi hedgerows considering the following parameters, amount of rainfall, sediment yield and runoff.
The experimental area was divided into four plots with various
slopes.
S1 = plot with 17 % slope
S2 = plot with 24 % slope
S3 = plot with 54 % slope
S4 = plot with 66 % slope
Results of the study revealed that plot with the highest degree of Slope had significantly higher sediment yield and surface runoff than those plots with lower slopes.
