Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.
The diagrams give information about the causative factors of agricultural downward productivity all over the world and the
three
affected regions with details in the 1990s.
Overall
, the trend classifies the four main reasons for the
land
degradation into: overgrazing,
deforestation
, overcultivation and others, where the overgrazing as the main cause. The data present in percentage and detailed description of the
three
additional regions were given: North
America
,
Europe
and Oceania. At
first,
the pie chart in 1999s witnessed overgrazing for all world agriculture as the most major effect for
land
became less productive by 35%. It is followed by
deforestation
by 30%
while
over-cultivation by 28% and the other factors resulted in only one fifth of the highest proportion.
On the other hand
, the data from the table specifically segregated focusing on the
three
major reasons described previously within
three
given regions.
Europe
was significantly affected by 23% and followed by Oceania with 13% from the total
land
while
North
America
showed the least affected by 5%.
In contrast
with the data for the overworld as similar as in Oceania’s
land
degradation
whereas
the overgrazing activities became the main culprit, both North
America
and
Europe
showed different results. In
Europe
,
deforestation
had greatly affected almost half of the
land
productivity by 9.8%
while
over-cultivation in North
America
caused more than half of the affected
land
by 3.3%.
In contrast
, no over cultivation but overgrazing by 11.3% over 13% in Oceania mainly caused the
land
degrade with the activity of
deforestation
by 1.7%
