The paper presents development of measures for prevention of soil erosion with water as a result of wrong mechanical impact of machine-tractor aggregates (MTA) on the arable fields located with inclination and in conditions of rugged area. Statistic data according to inclination angle of field surface, implementation terms of agricultural operations and seasonal changes of soil humidity have been considered in the Poozere region as an example. The paper substantiates an expediency of MTA movement on horizontal directions of the terrain and the allowable inclination values according to inclination angle of field surface. Innovative technical solutions in universal tractor design providing sustainable MTA movement along terrain horizontals have been proposed in the paper.
