Dear Student,

Please find below the solution to the asked query: 

Overgrazing is a major cause of land degradation. Overgrazing causes the natural vegetation like grass to be depleted. Such natural vegetation holds the top soil of the land together. When overgrazing causes the grass to be destroyed, it causes the top soil to be washed away by water or blown away by the land. This is a major cause of soil erosion which can eventually cause the desertification of the land.

overgrazing is the rapid removal of a large number of plants and grasses from a piece of land by cattle without giving sufficient recovery periods.
following are some of the ways by which overgrazing affects the quality of land:
1. It reduces Anchorage by the plant roots in the soil and the soil becomes loose. the leads to many problems such as soil erosion (removal of soil by strong winds or flowing water)

2. it makes the soil barren and unproductive as there are no trees or plants in the soil.

3. dispatch of land becomes prone to flood and if flood occurs in that area,it will cause the greatest possible Damage as there are no trees to provide resistance in the path of flowing water.

HOPE THIS HELPS U
HAVE A GREAT DAY
