Online High Street battles against soil erosion!

Soil is one of the richest ecosystems that lies beneath our feet. Unfortunately it is endangered by erosion. This is caused by intensive agriculture, construction works, rainfall, rivers and streams, heavy winds and animal grazing.
The issue with soil erosion is it causes loss of soil fertility, air pollution and infrastructure damage.
Please find a few tips to fight soil erosion provided by your one and only Online High Street!

  1. Try to plant flowers, trees and shrubs

2. Get a fence around your property.

3. Add a terrace to your house

4. Use compost in your garden. You can make some from your food waste (i.e: Egg shells, banana peel, carrot peel etc)

5. Try crop rotation to avoid damaging your soil

6. Plant cover crops
