Answer:

Soil erosion removes the surface soil. Surface soil performs the highest biological activity and contains the greatest amount of organic matter. Removal of surface soil causes a loss in nutrients and  creates a less favorable environment for plant growth. Soil erosion removes the top layer of the soil which is most  fertile.

Explanation:

  • In the process of Soil Erosion, the soil particles are washed away in the valleys, oceans, rivers or far away lands.
  • Soil Erosion happens due to human activities such as agriculture and deforestation.
  • Soil erosion  occurs either slowly or at an alarming rate. The results of Soil erosion are loss of topsoil, ecological degradation, soil collapse, etc.
