By analyzing the factor system of man-made soil erosion,research on soil erosion occurring at villages in the coarse sediment area of the Loess Plateau was found to be less conducted.The amount of soil erosion at villages in the area was thus calculated based on field investigation and statistic analysis.Soil erosion at villages was shown to account for 9.24% of man-made soil erosion. According to the characteristics of soil erosion,some basic measures are presented for the prevention and control of soil erosion at villages in the Loess Plateau.
