A second way to estimate the cost of the soil erosion is by estimating the impact of soil erosion on yield. The analysis is similar to the CSR analysis, but the difference in yield is the measure of the impact of erosion. This analysis includes continuous corn and a corn/soybean rotation.t this rate, the range in cost to the land owner per acre per year would be from $2.75 to $6.45 an acre. There is considerable difference between soils and counties with respect to the loss in value caused by erosion.
1 Renting a scraper attachment for a small tractor or similar machinery for a straightforward project like leveling a gravel driveway can cost $50-$70 a day. 2  Renting a small backhoe can cost $100-$200 for a half-day or day, depending on location and model. The land should be cleared of all vegetation and other obstacles before grading begins. 2  See How Much Does Land Clearing Cost. 3  Topsoil is valuable, so usually the first step is to strip away and stockpile the layer of topsoil on the site.
