The assessment of soil degradation in Los Andes, Quillota and Concon municipalities, which represents the morphoclimatic environments of Aconcagua Valley, was identified through the Erosion Respones Units (ERUs). Subsequently, the soil loss was quantified through the Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE) in microbasins, and timely simulations were made for two different scenarios, representing the implementation of soil conservation practices. On the other hand, quality indicators were used to quantify the degradation produced in the last decade on the bottom part of the valley
