Question

What is meant by overgrazing?

Answer in Brief

Solution

The cattle graze on a piece of land repeatedly, uprooting or eating away even the roots. The grasses have no scope to regenerate, rendering the land to become completely denuded. The soil is thus susceptible to erosion by water and wind.
