Answer:

A geological event shifted the rocks

Explanation:

The rock layers have the natural tendency to layer up in horizontal manner, thus to be positioned one above the other. This actually means that the rock layers are sorted out by age, with the ones on the bottom being the oldest ones, and the ones on top the youngest ones. The Earth is not static though, and there's constant movements, geological activities, that disturb the rock layers. If there are geological activities that will push up and than move sideways the rock layers, the rock layers will appear to have vertical layers, not horizontal ones, thus giving a nice clue about how they came to be in that position.

#8 farm land wont produce as much cause there is nothing to fuel the plant growth.

#9 farmers and humans will need to move around more and tear down more natural land to find suitable soil or else there will be famine all over

#10 since farmers have to till massive amounts of tops soil in order to be able to use the land it cause erosion from the wind rain etc. causing land to fail cause mudslides etc. then famine start setting in cause there would be now more suitable land for farming cause farmers would move around and use up all the land.
