How does fertilizer usage, soil degradation, and deforestation all tie in together?

Biology
1 answer:
Tamiku [17]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

<u>Fertilizer usage is linked to the agricultural practice</u> with an aim to <u>enhance the crop yield</u>. Inadequae use of fertilizers however causes soil degradation because <u>these practices overlook the spatial differences in soil fertility status </u>in agricultrual systems. Specifically,<u> not all soils require fertilizer application at the same levels</u>. A recommended approach is that, initially, there should be a proper study of limited nutrients in the soil and thereon only those nutrients should be given at controlled concentrations, which are limited. A major reason is that <u>high concentration of specific nutrients would affect the bioavailability of other nutrients</u> in the long run and could also lead to soil degradation (by affecting soil health status). <u>The microbial population in the soil could also change</u> that are typical for essential biogeochemical cycles. This is a very critical aspect in future future agriculture and to preserve the environment. <u>Deforestation</u> is a condition when the plants are cut excessively for agricultural purposes. <u>If soil degradation continues as discussed above, it would put a reduce the overall proportion of agricultrual land and cutting of naturally grown forests would be required. This would turn the green zones into agricultural zones (in future)</u>. This is a pressure on ecosystem and the consequences can be really harsh.
