This study focuses on identifying areas at risk of soil degradation due to human activities, such as mechanical stress and modification of soil properties. Factors like soil wetness, climate, agricultural practices, and soil sensitivity to compaction are analyzed to assess risk areas. The study utilizes SMU/STU delineation, relief stress, land use statistics, soil properties, and agricultural typologies for a comprehensive risk identification approach. Data sources include NUTS statistical data, land cover spatial data, farming systems surveys, and relief models at national and regional levels.
