The pie chart below shows the main reasons why agricultural land becomes less productive. The table shows how these causes affected three regions of the world during the 1990s
The pie chart illustrates the main factors leading to land degradation on the global scale while the table provides the proportions of land degraded by these causes to three areas during the 1990s.
In general, it can be seen that on a global scale, over-grazing, deforestation and over-cultivation are the main reasons with comparable figures. Also, Europe had the largest percentage of land degraded.
In details, over-grazing is held responsible for degrading 35% of worldwide land, which is followed by deforestation and over-cultivation ( 30% and 28%, respectively). Other factors only accounted for less than 10 percent.
However, this pattern was not observed for the figures in individual areas. Up to 23% of land in Europe was degraded, which was higher than the figure for Oceania (13%) and North America (5%). In Europe, nearly 10% of land degradation was attributed to deforestation whereas over-cultivation and over-grazing had lesser impacts (accounting for 7.7 percent and 5.5 percent, respectively). In contrast, most of the land degraded in Oceania was because of over-grazing while deforestation only accounted for 1.7% of degradation. Over-cultivation was a non-factor for these islands. However, this was the main cause of degradation in the land of North America, contributing 3.3% out of 5%, which was more than 2 times the figure for over-grazing whereas deforestation played a minor role.
