Geography

The livestock overgrazing of the Sahel resulted in desertification.

Explanation:

The Sahel is a region roughly stretching in an east to west direction. It separates the Sahara Desert on the north, and the steppes and savannas on the south. This region is semi-arid, being dominated by short grasses that are well adapted to prolonged periods of drought.

There a re people that live in this region, and thus there are human activities. Some of the prime human activities is the farming of livestock. The livestock needs grazing, and considering that it needs it constantly, an area that doesn't provide lot of food like the Sahel, is not able to sustain that. That contributes to overgrazing, which in turn contributes to desertification of the Sahel, so the Sahara Desert is gradually moving southwards.

The Sahel occupies territory in the countries:

  • Senegal
  • Mauritania
  • Burkina Faso
  • Mali
  • Niger
  • Nigeria
  • Chad
  • Sudan
  • Eritrea

Why is the standard time of bangladesh half hour ahead of India?
makkiz [27]
India spreads along two distinctive time zones +UTC5:00 and UTC+6:00. In any case, India needed to proceed with a similar time all through the entire nation and hence thought of UTC+5:30 which is the normal of the above. In spite of the fact that this works decently pleasantly for the various parts of India, it doesn't function admirably for the northeastern states.

dangina [55]

Answer:

China's main source of economic growth are through agriculture, production of goods, transportation and cheap labour.

Each of these aforementioned factors helped in boosting the economic growth and development of China.

China's agriculture produce are exported across the globe.

It's also worth noting that China had friendly policy which attracts foreign investors through their Special Economic Zones initiated by the government.

The income generated from tax generated from the foreign investors and other IGRs were used to expand their production industry whose finished goods were transited via effective transport system such as waterways to other countries especially the USA,

All these and more made China a major commercial economy.
