Chapter 1 Agricultural Land Degradation in Argentina -- Chapter 2 Agricultural Soil Degradation in Australia -- Chapter 3 Perspectives from Africa, Asia, America and Oceania -- Chapter 4 Agricultural Land Degradation in Brazil -- Chapter 5 Agriculture Land Degradation in Chile -- Chapter 6 Agricultural Land Degradation in China -- Chapter 7 Agricultural Soil Degradation in Colombia -- Chapter 8 Agricultural Land Degradation in India -- Chapter 9 Degradation of Agricultural Lands in Israel -- Chapter 10 Agricultural Land Degradation in Kenya -- Chapter 11 Agricultural Land Degradation in Mexico -- Chapter 12 Agricultural Land Degradation in South Africa -- Chapter 13 Agricultural Land Degradation in the United States of America.

This is the first of two volumes that together provide a global overview of the impact of agriculture on soil degradation, tracing the most critical drivers like the use and abuse of agrochemicals, mechanization, overgrazing, irrigation, slash and burn agriculture, and the use of plastics. This book covers the main effects of agriculture practices on soil degradation in several countries from Africa, America, Asia, and Oceania, and it elucidates the impact of chemical agents on soil quality, namely, the use of fertilizers, herbicides, pesticides, soil acidification and microplastics pollution. In these continents, a large number of the population depend on agriculture, which sets an enormous pressure on the ecosystems. Divided into 13 chapters, the book offers authoritative contributions about the fundamental soil degradation problems in countries such as Argentina, Australia, Peru and Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, China, Colombia, India, Israel, Kenya, Mexico, South Africa, the United States of America. As soil degradation issues are often linked with biodiversity loss and poverty, readers will also find in this book an important discussion of the different social, economic, political, and environmental aspects contributing to soil quality and sustainable management. Given the breadth and depth of its coverage, the book offers an invaluable source of information for researchers, students, environmental managers and policymakers alike.
