Abstract

Global considerations of vulnerability to different land degradation processes, indicate that significant areas, not only in the germ and the desert areas of the world, but throughout Europe, to a greater or lesser extent, affected by wind erosion. Conducted analyses and assessments have shown that wind erosion in Europe threatens a total of about 42 million hectares of land (European Environment Agency-EEA, 2000). Wind erosion is particularly pronounced in the plains, where the primary economic activity is agriculture. Vojvodina, based on its natural characteristics, located in the zone of moderate and medium-intensity wind erosion, but with potentially high to very high risk of the emergence and intensification of erosion processes caused by human activity. Agri-protection windbreaks in the process of land consolidation, as a biological way to combat wind erosion, are the subject of this paper, in order to determine the differences between the projects of agri-protection forest belts and the actual situation on the ground. Therefore, the paper will be presented with the following characteristics agri-protection forest belts, the first project, and then view the current situation in the field.
