Answer:

Soil erosion is a naturally occurring process which involves wind. Moving air blows away the top most loose layer of the soil by the process of soil erosion. Top most layer of soil is loose and fertile as it contains many organic nutrients deposited by decomposing organisms. Forests are rich in vegetation. Herbs, shrubs and trees in the forests hold the top most layer firmly by their roots. This does not allow natural forces like wind and water to carry away the top most fertile layer of the soil easily. Hence, forests prevent soil erosion.
