Answer 1

Answer:

C.  overfarming

Explanation:

The problem that might likely occur with farming a plot of land year after year without any fertilizer is over-farming.

• Over- cultivation is the excessive use of a land.
• This results into nutrient depletion of the land as a result of pressure on the minerals in the soil.
• Over- cultivation often leads to land degradation.
• This makes the land unfit for agricultural purpose and a risk of being a desert.
• One leading cause of over farming is overpopulation.
• When too many people are farming and they cannot make room for crop rotation or bush fallowing, the pressure on the soil becomes too much.
