This paper presents the changes in the use of resources of the land in Podkarpacie Province on the total area of Polish and voivodeship background, respectively, in 2000-2006. It was analyzed the risk of wind erosion of soil and surface and gully water erosion. During the period, a slight but systematic increase in the area of agricultural land and forest land and wooded. This is due to changes in the scope of the existing records of agricultural land since 2002. At the same time there has been a reduction in area of land under water, and the urban built-up land and forest excluded from production and land devastated and degraded. Due to the shape of the surface, the geological structure of the specific geological, climatic conditions and human activities in Podkarpacie Province significant risk of soil erosion, especially the water surface, and to a lesser extent, gully and wind. The threat is also the land mass movements (landslides).
