Soil erosion is a big problem that damages soil and affects plant growth. This study looked at how soil erosion has changed from 2011 to 2019 and predicted what it might be like in 2021, 2023, and 2025. They used a special equation to estimate erosion rates and a computer model to predict future changes in the land. The results showed that erosion rates could vary a lot in the future, from very low to very high. The researchers found that their methods were accurate and reliable for predicting soil erosion in the study area.
