Description: Grazing, draining and burning on peatlands can lead to steep erosion features on exposed peat. The steeper the angle of an erosion feature, the faster it erodes. Yorkshire Peat Partnership works to make these angles shallower and apply a range of supporting materials to limit further erosion.
