The Impact of Desertification on Arable Land

Agriculture and Desertification

The activity that involves the process of producing plants and cattle is known as agriculture. Agriculture was a significant factor in the rise of sedentary human society, as it enabled humans to move to cities by producing surplus food from cultivated species.

A. Desertification is the process of transforming arable or habitable land into dry, unsuitable soil for cultivation.

Desertification is referred to as the kind of drought land degradation in which organic production is killed as a result of biological cycles or human impacts, causing productive areas to become progressively arid.

It is the growth of desert areas as a result of a variety of factors, including climate change (especially present global warming) and human-caused soil depletion of resources.
