The natural forces are also responsible for land degradation...
Forest degraded area, water eroded area and area affected by saline and alkaline deposits come under this..

At present, 130 million hectares of degraded land in India, approximately 28%belongs to forest degraded, 56% belongs to water eroded and rest belongs to area affected by saline and alkaline deposits...

Hope it helps you dear ☺️☺️

nature is responsible for the land degradation by the following ways;

1.The running water cuts through the clayey soils and makes deep channels as gullies. The land becomes unfit for cultivation and is known as bad land.

2.sheet erosion- the top layer of soil is washed away by the flow of water as a sheet over large areas down a slope.

3.Degradation of soil may occur due to the heavy wind which can cause soil erosion.thus the soil loses its fertility.
