The Fragment Cover property describes the proportion of the soil surface covered by coarse fragments such as rocks, stones, or other large particles. This property is important because a high fragment cover can reduce soil erosion but may also interfere with water infiltration and root growth. Fragment cover is often used as an indicator of soil stability and erosion potential. Source: FAO (2006). Guidelines for Soil Description (4th ed.).
