Two demonstrations of gully erosion control were carried out on a co-operator's property in the demonstration sub-watershed of the Avon River during 1981. The construction of a rock chute and the installation of a drop- inlet structure with tile outlet protection served to demonstrate two both simple and economical means of controlling a common erosion problem. Such methods of stabilizing the gullies proved quite acceptable to the landowner while providing a future reduction of sediment contributions to the private drain receiving the discharge.
