What is soil erosion ?
Answer
Soil erosion is the displacement of the upper layer of soil ; it is a form of soil degradation. This natural process is caused by the dynamic activity of erosive agents, that is, water, ice, snow, air, plants, animals, and humans.
The various factors of soil erosion are :
- Wind
- Overgrazing
- Water
- Deforestation
- Crop Rotation
- Building Dams
- Loss of Top Soil
- Soil Acidity Levels
- Issues with Plants reproduction
- Poor Drainage.
Soil erosion is a gradual process that occurs when the impact of water or wind detaches and removes soil particles, causing the soil to deteriorate. Soil deterioration and low water quality due to erosion and surface runoff have become severe problems worldwide.Sediment production and soil erosion are closely related.
