Effects of Olive Mill Waste Applications on Runoff and Soil Losses under Artificial Rainfall Conditions

Abstract

 

Soil, one of the most important natural resources is, lost by water and wind erosion. Addition of organic materials into the soils is commonly used for reducing soil and water losses. In this study, loam, sandy loam, loamy sand and clay loam soil samples, passed thought 8 mm sieve were placed into erosion pans with a size of sized as 30x45x15 cm. Olive mill waste was applied to soil within the erosion pans at 4 different covering ratios (0, 25, 50, and 100%). An artificial rainfall with intensity of 40 mm h-1was applied. After artificial rainfall applications, runoff and soil losses were calculated. The results clearly indicated that runoff and soil losses from the erosion pans decreased significantly by increasing rate of olive mill waste coverage. It was obtained that addition of olive mill wastes even with a rate of 25% was effective surface cover for reducing runoff and soil losses.
