Soil erosion has led to land degradation, which affects the environmental and economic sustainability of agricultural systems. This study aims assess annual soil loss potential prioritize risk areas in Sala watershed for conservation planning. sampling topographic data were primary sources data. The secondary satellite imagery meteorological Revised Universal Loss Equation (RUSLE) model, integrated with GIS remote sensing (RS) techniques, was used formulate optimal management plans hotspot area. results showed that distribution ranged from 1 1,875 t/ha/year, mean 312.6 t/ha/year. findings also revealed classified as having low rates (1–162 t ha/year) (31.91%), moderate (162–405 (39.67%), high (405–805 t/ha/year) (20.78%), very (800–1875 (7.64%). 28.42% severity, primarily found on steeper slopes inappropriate use practices. In watershed, water measures have important implications improving fertility productivity. Thus, effective planning should be implemented achieve sustainable
