When soil is eroded due to any reason, it is called soil erosion. Soil erosion is a natural process. Geological activities (such as water currents or melting snow), climate actions (such as rain or strong winds) or human activity (such as agriculture, deforestation, and urban expansion) are all factors in soil erosion.
How to avoid soil erosion?
