With a simulated rainfall equipment the pattern of soil nutrient loss from a loessial soil under different rainfall intensities was preliminarily studied by plot test on a sloping surface. Results showed that soil nutrients mainly migrated with sediment in unsoluable forms while the amounts of soluble nutrients removed with runoff were very little. The different forms of nutrients were enriched in sediment. The amounts of nutrient loss were in direct proportion to rainfall intensity. There was significant positive correlation between the amounts of soil loss and nutrient loss.
