Explanation:

From many years' wetlands are converted into farmlands as they provide retention of soil, proper food and clean water, and the cycling of nutrients. But wetlands should not be permanently converted<em> because it can increase the load on soil and add pollutants (pesticides or fertilizers) in the soil and  groundwater.</em>

If the farming stops and water flows on the land again, the native plants present in wetlands will help to recolonize the land which is disrupted by farming activities.

Hence, the correct option is A.
