Desertification in Machakos, Kenya, primarily occurred due to a combination of deforestation, overgrazing, and unsustainable agricultural practices. The rapid population growth led to increased demand for land and resources, resulting in soil degradation and loss of vegetation cover. Additionally, climate change exacerbated the situation by altering rainfall patterns, further diminishing the region's agricultural productivity and contributing to land degradation. Efforts for reforestation and sustainable land management have been initiated to combat these challenges.
