Afforestation

Vedclass · Answer

(C) Soil erosion is the process by which the top layer of soil is removed by natural forces like wind or water. Afforestation is the process of planting trees in an area where there was no previous tree cover. Trees and vegetation act as a protective cover for the soil,their roots bind the soil particles together,and their canopy reduces the impact of rain and wind,thereby preventing soil erosion. Overgrazing,removal of vegetation,and deforestation all contribute to increasing soil erosion.
