The removal of top fertile layer of soil is known as soil erosion.
Soil Erosion :-
Soil erosion is a naturally occurring process that refers to the wearing away of the top fertile layer of soil by the natural physical forces such as water and wind or through forces associated with farming activities such as tillage. The top soil is the top layer of soil and it is the most fertile layer of soil because it contains the most organic, nutrient rich materials. Therefore, it is the layer of the soil that farmers want to protect for growing their crops. Soil erosion can be a slow process that continues relatively unnoticed or can occur at an alarming rate causing serious loss of top soil.
