Answer» It is a process of eating the forest vegetation without giving a chance to regenerate. EFFECTS OF OVER GRAZING 1. Land degradation Over grazing removing the cover of vegetation Exposed soil gets compacted Soil moisture reduces. Desertification - OG leads to poor, dry and compacted soil. Land cannot be used for further cultivation. 2. Soil erosion: When the grasses are removed the soil becomes loose and gets eroded by the action of wind and rain fall. 3. Loss of useful species: OG affects the plant population and their regenerating capacity. OG replace the plant of high nutritive value with plant of low nutritive value |
