प्रश्न
Discuss the effects of deforestation on the following.
Villages (Rural areas)
उत्तर
The roots of plants hold soil particles together. In the absence of plants, the top layer of the soil will be easily removed by the action of high-speed winds or water flow. Thus, deforestation increases the chances of soil erosion. As a result, soil loses humus and becomes less fertile. Hence, fertile land, which is a source of living for farmers in villages, gets converted into a desert.
