Question

which method of land use is most likely to lead to soil erosion? deforestation for agriculture adding more green spaces conservation tillage practices creating rooftop gardens

Explanation:

• Deforestation for agriculture removes trees whose roots hold soil in place. Without tree cover, soil is more exposed to wind and water, increasing erosion.
• Adding green spaces (more plants) helps hold soil, reducing erosion.
• Conservation tillage (like no - till farming) leaves plant residue on the soil surface, protecting it from erosion.
• Rooftop gardens use plants in a controlled setting, and the soil there is less prone to erosion as it's not exposed to large - scale natural erosion forces.

Answer:

A. deforestation for agriculture
