Developing nations face food shortages, population decline, and shortened life expectancy. The urgency demands international cooperation, legislation, and technological advancements. Ecological Aspects of Soil and Land Preservation delves into this critical issue, emphasizing the need for collective action and sustainable solutions. Ecological Aspects of Soil and Land Preservation serves as a resource for scholars, students, and professionals committed to addressing the crisis. This book collects, summarizes, and analyzes the latest information on agricultural land and forest degradation. Beyond that, it introduces groundbreaking hypotheses, theories, and solutions, enriching the scientific community's understanding. The objective is clear: to be an informative resource that not only sheds light on the problem but also catalyzes actionable solutions.
