Answer 2

Answer:

c) Afforestation

Explanation:

In the given question,

The soil erosion is the phenomenon where the top layer of the soil is removed from the land because of the acts of the nature like that of strong flowing water or blowing of the wind which takes away all the top soil from the land and leaves it barren.

This can be prevented by the act of Afforestation which means the sowing of seeds and plantation of trees on the land which is left barren for a long time and is not available for farming or agricultural purposes.

Reforestation is, however, a different phenomenon which includes the plantation of more trees at the place where there is decreasing number of trees.  

Therefore, the correct option is (c) which is Afforestation.
