The equation is: E = f(IKCLV)
  −
where E = Estimated average annual soil loss expressed in tons per acre per year
  −
I = Soil erodibility index
  −
K = Soil ridge roughness factor
  −
C = Climatic factor
  −
L = Equivalent unsheltered distance across the field along the prevailing wind erosion direction
  −
V = Equivalent vegetative cover
