Farming
is increased erosion is the wrong answer. rocks carried by glaciers is the right one
the south's staple crops tended to exhaust the soil and lead to erosion
Erosion control is the term used in the practice of preventing or controlling wind and water erosion in agriculture, land development and construction.
The excess use of fertilizers does not of itself lead to soil erosion. It is agriculture - the clear felling and working of land that was once covered by trees or natural vegetation that leads to soil erosion. The roots of stable plants "bind" the soil - remove these plants and the soil will wash or blow away.
Farming
Erosion can lead to loss of fertile soil, which can impact agriculture and food production. It can also affect infrastructure such as buildings, roads, and bridges, leading to increased maintenance costs. Additionally, erosion can contribute to sedimentation in water bodies, affecting water quality and aquatic ecosystems.
Soil erosion can be increased by wind, water, or over tilling the land.
erosion of rich soil
Removing any root growth from a hillside can lead to an increased risk of erosion or land slip.
The long-term effects of slash and burn agriculture can include soil degradation, loss of biodiversity, and deforestation. Over time, this practice can lead to nutrient depletion in the soil, reduced water retention capacity, and increased vulnerability to erosion. It can also disrupt ecosystems and lead to habitat loss for many plant and animal species.

Industrial agriculture pollutes soil, reduces biodiversity, pollution and genetic erosion.
Erosion increases due to the effective gravitational gradient.
