Question

1. If we use soil as a natural resource, what do you think we are doing to hurt it or

use it up to where it is unusable, damaged, or gone? In other words what would

make soil unusable? *

Answer 1

Soils degrade through waterlogging and loss of nutrients

Soil can also become degraded through loss of nutrients - chiefly nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium - if these are not replenished to maintain soil fertility.
