Burning land can temporarily increase fertility by releasing nutrients locked in plant material and promoting the growth of new vegetation. This process, known as slash-and-burn agriculture, can enrich soil in the short term. However, repeated burning can lead to soil degradation, loss of nutrients, and increased erosion over time. Thus, while initial fertility may increase, long-term effects can be detrimental if not managed sustainably.
