1 answer

The method that best helps to prevent wind erosion is rotating crops. Crop rotation enhances soil structure and increases organic matter, which helps to bind soil particles together and reduce the potential for erosion by wind. It also prevents the depletion of soil nutrients and promotes a healthier ecosystem.

Other methods listed, such as avoiding soil compaction, can also contribute to minimizing erosion, but crop rotation specifically addresses the issue of wind erosion directly through improved soil health and cover.
