METHODOLOGY
CONCLUSION

 Land Degradation Is One Of The Most Complex Environmental

Issues Facing National Governments And Communities Worldwide.
It Is Also One Of The Least Understood. Land And Its Primary
Constituent Element, The Soil, Form The Basic Terrestrial
Foundation Of Human Development And Survival, Physically
Sustaining Societies Around The World Through Agriculture,
Grazing, Forestry, And The Maintenance Of Water Sources. The
Human Link To Land And Its Soils Are An Inherent Part Of Global
And National Culture And Heritage.2 Soil Bodies Are Large And
Readily Identifiable Ecosystems And Are The Fundamental
Components Of Terrestrial Biodiversity Until Recently, Land
Degradation Law Was Seen As The Poor Cousin Of Natural
Resources And Environmental Law.
RECOMMENDATION
 It recommend that the students should learned the concept of land degradation
 Government and stake holders should improve methode of afforestation.
 To prevent soil sealing
 To avoid unnecessary soil sealing
 To protect green areas at the Fringe of settlement
 To consider soil quality along planning
