One thing you can do to control soil erosion is to plant anything... grass, shrubs, trees. Anything works as long as it has a root. This is because the root holds the soil and stops it from being eroded by wind or water.
Soil erosion can be slowed down by flood control and planting more trees.

Plant some plants

Vegetative stabilizationis the process of establishing vegetation on a construction site to prevent erosion.
Mechanical erosion control measures are implemented to minimize onsite and offsite impacts of these activities, as well as to rehabilitate degraded lands. Often, mechanical erosion controls are applied in combination with vegetative erosion control techniques.
Erosion abatement and control.
Erosion is a natural process. Humans contribute to erosion when they clear an area of plants. Plants help to keep the soil in place through their roots. Humans can help to control erosion by planting hillsides and slopes with erosion control plants.
roots hold soil in place
Plants help to check soil erosion considerably. During flood or excessive rain, the soil gets washed away by the flow of water. However, deep rooted plants help the soil not get washed away by the water pressure, thereby slowing down the process of soil erosion. Therefore, planting of deep rooted trees are advisable along the river shore.
It's the other way around. Erosion takes soil away and removes it. Erosion is bad for the soil. The more erosion there is, the less soil there is.
