Detailed Solution

Gullies in badlands are formed when concentrated running water cuts through soils, making deep channels. Gullies can damage roads, buildings, and other important infrastructure. There are several therapy approaches available to stop this type of deterioration. One such method is a river covered with grass where the grass firmly grasps the dirt and prevents it from washing away. The alternate method would be to grow cover crops every year. After crop harvest, the region will typically be left fallow. However, we can use cover crops since their roots hold onto the soil. When the season arrives, and the dead roots begin to degrade to provide organic matter for the soil, herbicides can be employed to eliminate cover crops.
