Question

how agriculture expansion caused decrease in forest cover​

Answer 1

Answer:

The loss of agricultural land is due largely to land degradation, such as erosion, which is when soil components move from one location to another by wind or water. Agricultural land is also being lost because it is being converted for other purposes, such as highways, housing and factories.

Urbanization and industrialization:

Since Industrialization and Urbanization needs land to grow, so major amount of forest lands are cut in order to promote Industrialization and Urbanization. This creates harmful effect on environment and forest ecological balance.

Answer 2

Answer:

Cattle ranching, animal agriculture, and logging are the leading causes of deforestation in our forests. Land is cut or burned to make room for cattle grazing, feed crop production, and timber to build houses and create specialty wood products.
