The deforestation causes te soil to erode this eroded soil corrodes the top layer of the soil and brings the lower hards which is exposed. This soil is less fertile. Continous erosion can convert land into a desert. This process is known as desertification.

Desertification is when land of a particular area get barren just like desert. It is caused because of water scarcity in that particular region. The consequence is that it becomes very difficult to survive as there is shortage of water.

Desertification is defined as a process of land degradation in arid, semi-arid and sub-humid areas due to various factors including climatic variations and human activities. Or, to put it in another way, desertification results in persistent degradation of dryland and fragile ecosystems due to man-made activities and variations in climate. Desertification, in short, is when land that was originally of another type of biome turns into a desert biome because of changes of all sorts. A huge issue that many countries have is the fact that there are large pockets of land that are going through a process that is known as desertification.

Overgrazing is the major cause of desertification worldwide. Other factors that cause desertification include urbanization, climate change, overdrafting of groundwater,deforestation, natural disasters and tillage practices in agriculture that place soils more vulnerable to wind. Desertification affects topsoil, groundwater reserves, surface runoff, human, animal and plant populations. Water scarcity in drylands limits the production of wood, crops, forage and other services that ecosystems provide to our community.
