Abstract

The impact of erosion globally shows huge losses in food production. Economic damage due to erosion is related to the total rainfall that falls in an area. High rainfall due to extraordinary climate change will have an effect on soil erosion. Specific planning in various regions will restrain erosion impact. Erosion prevention such as environmental rehabilitation through reforestation of land can be done by managing land that has erosion potential. Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE) is the most popular method for really used method predicting amount of erosion. Geographic Information Systems (GIS) can facilitate the process of visualization and geographic exploration of the secondary data obtained, especially in identifying the level of erosion hazard. The erosion hazard level in Way Besai watershed is 505.7502 tons/ha/year which is classified as Erosion Hazard Class V or very high. Sediment in Way Besai watershed is 352485.91 tons/year for an area of 38865 Ha. Erosion hazard percentage according to slope classification is 0 – 8 (1.89%), 8 – 15 (6.6%), 15 – 25 (14.62%), 25 – 40 (32.08%), and > 40 (44.81%). The erosion hazard area with high classification is located in a mountainous area with large slope.
