Social Sciences - Geography / soil types | | French term or phrase: sols peu évolués d’érosion gravillonnaire | Part of a humanitarian project report, outlining geographic conditions in the Saraya region of Senegal.
La région de Kédougou présente le relief le plus accidenté du Sénégal, c’est une succession de plateaux, de lits de cours d’eau parfois très encaissés, de cascades et de collines. Parmi les sols répertoriés en 1964-65, on peut noter que les sols minéraux bruts d’érosion et les *sols peu évolués d’érosion gravillonnaire* couvrent plus de 96 % de la zone. |
| | | English translation:slightly eroded gravelly soils | Explanation:
The Kédougou region presents the most rugged terrain in Senegal, comprising a series of plateaus, occasionally very steep-sided riverbeds, waterfalls and hills. Among the soils listed in 1964-65, we note that uneroded mineral soils and ***slightly eroded gravelly soils*** cover more than 96% of the total area
