Yield reductions during severe drought were so great that residue levels, even with no-tillage, were insufficient for protecting the soil from winderosion. This may be caused by the lower winderosion forces and the lower soil -ux in the windbreak trial. Fine soil particles lost to winderosion are also the richest in organic matter. Transplanting shrubs has the added advantage that they may reduce wind speed at ground level and thereby combat winderosion at reclamation sites. Winderosion losses from the various tillage treatments were also estimated during a drought cycle50. Another potential secondary impact resulting from remedial action was winderosion of contaminated sites. Farmers would preserve stubble against winderosion only if it also markedly increased subsequent crop yields. These operations destroy organic matter, reduce the water-holding capacity of our light sands and increase soil susceptibility to winderosion. Aggregates in groups 1 and 2 are susceptible to winderosion. In addition, winderosion was reduced and precipitation use efficiency increased3. South-west winds prevail during the rainy season, but do not cause erosion; eastern wind storms regularly precede rainfall events and frequently cause winderosion. Winderosion is limited, but soil erosion by running water is a serious problem in the sample area. Winderosion of spill sites may result in the mobilisation and dispersal or accumulation of hydrocarboncontaminated sediments. Windbreaks in agricultural systems can improve micro-climatic conditions for crop growth, halt wind erosion, stabilize mobile dunes and thus contribute to sustained soil fertility leading to stable and higher yields. Physical quantities of soil erosion, often estimated using methods poorly adapted to local conditions, have often been used as indicators of economic loss resulting from water and winderosion. The objective of this research was to determine the interactions between windbreaks and crop residue mulch on winderosion, soil properties and the production of pearl millet. At the same time, as cropping encroaches into drier 'steppe' landscapes vulnerability to winderosion increases. Cultivation practices can expose soil to water and winderosion; repeated tillage can weaken soil structure; crop production can remove nutrients; and use of machinery can lead to soil compaction.
