how can population levels affect desertification
The Sahel is a grassland. Desertification turns food grazing and farmland into unusable desert. Since the Sahel is used for both farming and grazing, it would hurt the economy of the Sahel people.
Desertification - the southward spread of the Sahara - is the major threat to the Sahel.

Yes, the Sahel is undergoing desertification because of over grazing and poor agricultural practices.
the plant life and agriculture will go down and exporting will decrease

overgazing it
what areas of the earth are undergoing desertification
Desertification can change patterns of settlement in the region by making it more difficult for people to settle in a particular region.
The Sahel is not a desert but is undergoing desertification forcing it further south.
Some of the human activities that have contributed to desertification of the Sahel include overgrazing by livestock, deforestation for fuelwood and agricultural expansion, improper irrigation practices leading to soil salinization, and climate change exacerbating dry conditions. These activities have disrupted the fragile ecological balance of the region, leading to soil erosion, loss of vegetation cover, and ultimately desertification.
