RT Journal Article SR Electronic T1 Soil erosion control on owner-operated and rented cropland JF Journal of Soil and Water Conservation FD Soil and Water Conservation Society SP 285 OP 288 VO 37 IS 5 A1 David E. Ervin YR 1982 UL http://www.jswconline.org/content/37/5/285.abstract AB Soil erosion control on rented cropland can present special problems for existing and new conservation programs. A variety of reasons may combine to constrain landlords and tenants from practicing soil conservation to the same degree that owner operators do. Data from Monroe County, Missouri, show clearly that there is less erosion control on rented cropland than on cropland operated by the owner. Effective erosion control on rented cropland, therefore, will require special features in new conservation programs, such as differential cost-sharing provisions for tenants.
