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.
Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features and make comparisons where relevant.

The pie chart gives the three major causes of land degradation around the world and the table compares the percentage of land degraded per cause in North America, Europe and Oceania between 1990 and 1999. These causes are deforestation. over-cultivation and over-grazing.

Overall, the main reason for agricultural land degradation in the world was over-grazing. Moreover, Europe had the highest proportion of land degraded and it was caused mainly by deforestation.

During the 1990s, about 35% of the agricultural land was degraded by over-grazing whereas deforestation accounted for 30% and over-cultivation came in third place, degrading 28% of agricultural land. The remaining 7% of land was degraded by other causes.

Europe and Oceania were damaged the most of the three regions, with around 23% and 13% of the agricultural land being degraded respectively. In Europe, deforestation was the primary cause of land degradation at 9.8% compared to 2% in North America. Over-cultivation was the second largest factor of land degradation in Europe with 7.7%. However, in Oceania, over-cultivation had hardly any influence on the farming land. While over-grazing had a slight impact (1.5%) on agricultural land in North America, it was the major cause of land degradation in Oceania, at 11.3%.
