The main problem caused by the intensification of agricultural practices is soil erosion created by laminar drag and through sizable landslides. The main cause of the erosion of soil is the destruction of natural vegetation for road-building, housing, industry, commerce, and areas of agricultural cultivation that have slopes of different gradients. Rain run-off produces adverse effects such as an increase in run-off volume, increased run-off peaks, a high presence of sediments and soil nutrients in run-off leading to lower agricultural yields, and landslides. |
