What do you mean by desertification?


The conversion of fertile land into desert is called desertification. Deforestation changes the physical properties. It causes soil erosion. Removal of top layer of soil exposes the lower, hard and rock layers. This soil has less human and is less fertile. Gradually the fertile land gets converted into deserts.
