Question

short note of soil degradation​

Answer 1

HEYA !!!!

✌✌

Soil degradation is the decline in soil condition caused by its improper use or poor management, usually for agricultural, industrial or urban purposes. It is a serious environmental problem. Avoiding soil degradation is crucial to our well-being.

Soil compaction, low organic matter, loss of soil structure, poor internal drainage, salinisation and soil acidity problems are other serious soil degradation conditions that can accelerate the soil erosion process. This Factsheet looks at the causes and effects of water, wind and tillage erosion on agricultural land.

Answer 2

Soil degradation is a nebulous term suggesting that the capacity of a soil to perform selected specified service(s), such as growing crops, has been diminished. The concept seems rather simple, but quantifying degradation has been very challenging and creates uncertainty associated with quantifying land degradation efforts. A global evaluation of soil or land degradation requires sampling and/or evaluation methodology and a land degradation metric that meets needs and interests for multiple different groups.
