Does soil erosion cause water pollution?
Yes. Soil erosion causes water pollution. The pollution from mud in the water is nowhere near as dangerous to people as the pollution from sewage. Likewise, excess fertilizer runoff creates algae blooms which poison people. Some health food nuts claimed blue green algae is good for you. Many cattle have died from drinking water from ponds filled with blue green algae. Fertilizer drained from farm fields into ponds caused the poisonous algae to grow. The pollution caused by soil erosion is bad. The pollution caused by fertilizer runoff is worse.

What do farmers harvest?
The best time for plowing is usually in fall, allowing the land to resettle before planting in the spring. Spring plowing also does work but is not as plant growth efficient as in the fall. Plowing is growing to be a lost art in the Midwest nowadays but on my farm we have found that plowing is the best way to increase yields in a world of tight margins.
