dc.description.abstractErosion is a process that deviates from its natural course due to human intervention. Erosion has many causes and continues to intensify due to mistakes made in agricultural areas and improper use of pastures. In order to understand the level of soil erosion, it is essential to understand the physical and chemical properties of the soil. This study aimed to determine the value of the K factor, also known as the soil erosion index in Alaçam district. The study includes collecting and analyzing soil samples, descriptive statistics and interpretation of the results, calculation of the K factor, and mapping of the K index by appropriate geostatistical method. SPSS 17.0 program was used for the statistics. In determining the geostatistical methods, the method with the lowest mean square error was preferred, and the ArcGIS 10.2.2 program was used during these processes. As a result of the research, it was observed that the K value was lower in agricultural areas. This situation is related to the amount of organic matter and permeability values. The fact that the erodibility is higher in agricultural areas with low slopes than in pasture lands with higher slopes indicates that agricultural activities are carried out to increase erosion. Although erosion is controllable throughout the district, agricultural practices and activities related to pasture animal husbandry should be meticulously monitored.
