How does derestification occur?

Desertification occurs primarily due to a combination of factors, including prolonged drought, deforestation, overgrazing, and unsustainable agricultural practices. These activities lead to soil degradation, loss of vegetation, and reduced soil fertility, making land increasingly arid and unable to support plant life. Climate change further exacerbates these conditions by altering precipitation patterns and increasing temperatures. As a result, once fertile land transforms into desert, impacting ecosystems and human livelihoods.
