Humans and many other living beings survive, thanks to healthy soils on the Earth's surface. However, soil health has been degrading for various reasons, such as human interference, natural disasters, and climate change. This study executes various spatial intelligence tools for monitoring and predicting soil erosion in farming systems concerning soil health for sustainable land management. The shared socioeconomic pathways (SSPs) of climate scenarios were combined with artificial neural networks (ANNs), random forest (RF), support vector machine (SVM), and adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) models to predict the soil erosion vulnerability by 2050. The long short-term memory (LSTM) based deep learning tool was integrated with the revised universal soil loss equation (RUSLE) for continuous observation and prediction of soil erosion. Results indicate that farming systems WU2, IU2, IM1a, and IM1c have higher rates of soil erosion (>8t/ha/year) and will be highly vulnerable to soil deterioration by 2050. The findings support index-based crop insurance schemes, environmental, social, and governance (ESG) agricultural risk assessment in farming systems and achieving sustainable development goals (SDGs).
