Two problems that today's agriculture has caused is soil erosion
and a decrease in biodiversity in the environment. This is especially due to mono-cropping of large tracks of land. Lands
cleared for agriculture almost immediately begin to erode away, usually by wind
or running water. Due to monocropping, the
reduced variety of plants on the
environment causes a consequent deduction in a variety
of animals in the region such as pollinators
due to the availability of only one type
of plant for pollination.
