Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:

In many cases, coastal areas offer very favorable environmental conditions for agriculture. This is especially so where coastal areas consist of alluvial accumulation plains. Such areas generally have deep, relatively flat, fertile soils and benefit from a substantial supply of water, from surface and/or subsurface sources. The Batinah and Salalah coastal plains in Oman are a good example; they produce most of the agricultural output of that arid country.

Thanks to the diversity of coastal environments, which include both terrestrial and marine ecosystems, coastal populations often draw their livelihoods from a combination of agriculture and fishing, and sometimes also from seasonal work in the tourism sector (which can lead to agricultural labour shortages). Box B.1 describes two Vietnamese systems where agriculture, forestry and, in one case, fisheries are closely integrated.
