Question

Describe the relationship between deforestation and poor soil and its effect on Sub Saharan Africa.

Please answer in a short response. Thank you!

Answer 1

The relationship between poor soil and deforestation in Sub- Saharan Africa continued.The poor soil will be blown away by the winds and all that will be left is barren rocky land. So, when deforestation occurs and the soil becomes poor or unprotected, desertification will begin to take place.

Step-by-step explanation:

Archaeological records claim that arid areas of Africa have been getting drier for almost 5,000 years. However, desertification is a coincidence of drought with the increasing pressures on fragile arid and semi-arid lands by greater number of people and livestock. This is accelerating land degradation

Answer 2

The soil will be blown away, so when winds come it will cause deforestation.
