Soil erosion
Soil erosion is the displacement of the upper layer of soil, primarily accelerated by human activity, leading to a loss of fertile topsoil and degradation of land. It occurs through various processes such as water and wind erosion, with factors like overgrazing, lack of vegetation, and steep slopes contributing to its severity. Prevention strategies include maintaining permanent vegetation, using cover crops, and implementing conservation practices to reduce runoff and protect soil integrity.
