The sludy emphasizes on lhe soil susceptibilily to sealing and crusting,compactation and soilloss by water erosion.The rate 01 degradation was based in experimental physical, chemical and geologicalindexes, and the spatial distribution 01 the degradation was delined by mean 01 geographicinlormation systems (GIS). •Results indicate that the most soils have higll susceplibilily 10 degradalion by sealing andcrusling (166.815 ha). The erosionabilily established by differenls parameters and physicalindexes shows a high erosion susceptibilily lor most soil units.The use 01 lhe GIS eslablished lhe uselulness 01 Ihis mean in lhe analysis and evaluation 01the spatial distribulion 01 lhe soil degradation processes.
