Abstract: Soil management techniques using vegetation and geomesh can mitigate runoff soil erosion. In this paper, the erosion control performance of different grade commercial coir and jute geomeshes were studied at different angle of soil slope using ASTM D 7101 standards, in a bench-sale setup with some modifications. The erosion control performance of geomeshes were correlated with the calculated storage volume of geomeshes and it was observed that the coir geomesh have better correlation with R2 value of 0.858. Whereas, jute geomesh have a moderate correlation with R2 value of 0.640, due to additional influence of high drapability, which facilitates better contact with soil surface and results in better performance than the calculated storage volume
