Please mark this answer as Brainliest!!!

Explanation:

1)Overgrazing removes the vegetal cover over the soil and the exposed soil gets compacted due to which the operative soil depth declines. So the roots cannot go much deep into the soil and adequate soil moisture is not available.

2)Organic recycling also declines in the ecosystem because not enough detritus or litter remains on the soil to be decomposed.

3)Due to trampling by cattle the soil loses infiltration capacity, which reduces percolation of water into the soil and as a result of this more water gets lost from the ecosystem along with surface run off. Thus overgrazing leads to multiple actions resulting in loss of soil structure, hydraulic conductivity and soil fertility.
