The soil in rainforests is often poor due to its rapid decomposition and nutrient cycling. While the abundant rainfall supports lush vegetation, it also leaches essential nutrients from the soil. Additionally, the dense canopy prevents sunlight from reaching the forest floor, limiting the growth of underbrush that could contribute organic matter to the soil. As a result, the nutrient-rich top layer is quickly depleted, leaving the soil less fertile over time.

Why the soil of tropical rain forests make poor farmland?
Typically, because the heavy nutrient cycling of tropical rain forests are so high, the top soil in these forests is very shallow- perhaps less than a meter. Once the forest is gone and the soil is used for farmland, it will never come back..... then the sun will beat down and further add to the stress of the land------ desert baby yeah.........
