Mismanagement
of the land will cause is becoming a big problem. The pollution it causes
are soil erosion, degradation and salinisation are just a few other problems
facing the state of our land. The causes are losing 6 hectares of land every
year and losing 24 billion tons of top soil. Globally we are losing a minimum
of 15 million acres of prime agricultural land to overuse and mismanagement
every year.
Desertification is threatening about one third (sixteen million square miles)
of the world’s land surface.
