Uncontrolled and intensive development of erosion process increases the risk of soil surface degradation and desertification in the agricultural landscapes. Climate change amplifies the frequency of extreme rainfalls, which reduce the erosion resistance of agricultural landscapes, especially the agricultural systems with row crops. The risk of erosion soil degradation due to the increased frequency of extremedaily rainfall was estimated. The current rate of year soil loss, caused by water erosio
