Answer 2

Answer:

The answer is C. Afforestation

Explanation:

• Overgrazing - it is the grazing of grass by cattle that results in the depletion of upper cover (grass layer) and leaves the soil barren. The patches of soil become visible due to overgrazing. The soil will be unprotected in that area that can be easily eroded by the water and wind.
• Shifting Cultivation - It is a slash and burn procedure of cultivation, in which farmers of the crops burn the already cultivated area after cutting the crop, and then move to other lands for the next cultivation of the crop. It makes the soil unfertile and accelerates deforestation.
• Afforestation - It is the planting of more trees and increases the forest area at the place where no tree has been grown already. It helps in the conservation of soil by protecting the above soil layer from erosion by wind, water, and anything else.
• Use of topsoil for making bricks and tiles - It is also unprotective for the soil. It harms the soil and increases the chances of erosion by wind, water, etc.
• One of the above measures that conserve soil is afforestation whereas the other; overgrazing, shifting cultivation, and use of topsoil for making bricks and tiles only harm the soil.
