Technical Abstract: Wind erosion results in reduced land productivity and environmental hazards. Wind erosion may be controlled through tillage, a surface cover of growing crops or crop residues, and by surface application of cementing agents. We investigated the effects of actively growing winter small grains and frost-killed summer forage grass seedlings at different densities, different post-harvest sorghum stubble management techniques, and different polyacrylamide (PAM) application rates and methods on in-field wind erosion in the Southern Great Plains of Texas, USA. We found cover cropping with winter small grains to reduce soil loss by 2 ' 3 orders of magnitude at all planting densities. Frost-killed summer forage grass seedlings initially reduced soil loss by 1 - 2 orders of magnitude at all densities, but the 3 kg/ha planting density lost effectiveness with time. Certain management systems of standing sorghum stubble also reduced soil loss. Surface application of PAM was not found to reduce in-field soil loss at any application rate
