Erosion is a global problem, which threatens one of the most valuable natural riches of the world, the soil. Erosion is a natural process that has been existing since the very be-ginning; this process is characterized by eroding the soil surface, transporting the soil particles, and the subsequent sedimentation of these particles. In its natural form, ero-sion does not present a big problem, since there are small losses of soil particles, which are sufficiently completed by newly formed particles from the subsoil. The real problem is identified in accelerated erosion which is caused by environment unfriendly human intervention in nature and landscape. In the Czech Republic, around 50 % of arable land is exposed to water erosion. In most cases, it is still a consequence of the collective farming period, when bounds, hedgerows or alleys were ploughed. It is important to be aware of the fact that this situ-ation is not viable for a long period and that it needs solution. The submitted thesis that is divided into two parts focuses on the matter of water erosion in the cadastral area of Stanislavice. The first part, which is theoretical, deals with a review of literature that generally discusses the concept of erosion, its division, causes, consequences, and possible anti-erosion measures. The second part is related to the practice and it is particularly linked to the erosion issue in the cadastral area of Stani-slavice. It also involves an analysis of the current situation and conditions in the cadas-tral area of Stanislavice, using the Wischmeier-Smith equation that defines the degree of land erosion risks. In the conclusion, appropriate erosion control measures are designed in order to diminish the erosion rate.
