We looked at erosion on Sondela. There was a road from reception to the boys' house that became a problem. It was a straight road so all the water went down it when it rained and taking all the valuable soil with it. They closed the road and made blocks with sickle bush. In each block they used a different method to recover the road. The ones that looks like the most effective was to cover the the block with sickle bush, so when it rains everything gets stuck in there so it grows in that block. The other method that also worked well was to plant seeds in the block. Hopefully in a years time that road would be fully recovered.
