The main cause of desertification is soil erosion . When the soil gets eroded through various ways such as cutting of trees , strong winds , heavy rain etc , the hard and dry soil comes over the top and if the soil erosion continues , it gradually leads to desertification.

Hey

Here is your answer,

A huge issue that many countries have is the fact that there are large pockets of land that are going through a process that is known as desertification.

✔Overgrazing is the major cause of desertification worldwide.
✔Other factors that cause desertification include urbanization, climate change, overdrafting of groundwater, deforestation, natural disasters and tillage practices in agriculture that place soils more vulnerable to wind.
✔Desertification affects topsoil, groundwater reserves, surface runoff, human, animal and plant populations.
✔ Water scarcity in drylands limits the production of wood, crops, forage and other services that ecosystems provide to our community.

Hope it helps you!
