Overgrazing causes desertification. This issue can be solved through rotational grazing.

ANSWER:

  • Over grazing reduces the forest and grass cover on the surface of the earth.
  • With over grazing, the plants and grass are all eaten up by animals and this in turn leaves the land barren.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Over grazing also causes destruction of land and biodiversity.
  • The land which has been over grazed also gets more prone to erosion and eventually loses productivity and usefulness for growing more plants.
  • Over grazing also leads to the growth of invasive plant species that may not be good for the land.
