  ABSTRACT: The Mount Guera is a particularly fragile environment undergoing soil degradation due to its rugged terrain, the violent nature of the types of precipitations that occur there and its geographical location which places it in the sahelian zone. Also, this environment constitutes the most populated part of the center of Chad, which makes it more vulnerable due to the anthropic action undertaken by men to satisfy their needs. This work aims to assess soil erosion in the region using the RUSLE model which quantifies the rate of erosion which varies in this region on average between 0.01 and 2967.09 t/ha/year. To spatialize this phenomenon, the RUSLE parameters have been implemented in ArGis. In view of the data obtained, there is reason to wonder about the future of this fragile environment which is likely to experience environmental problems in the short term.
