Dryland degradation creates hardships for millions of people worldwide. Brazilian drylands are characterized by extensive land use changes to subsistence agriculture, leading to soil degradation and desertification. Desertification leads to soil health (SH) degradation, but several regenerative practices (e.g., grazing exclusion, cover crops, reforestation), may stop and even revert this …
The Brazilian semiarid region is highly vulnerable to desertification, affecting over 34 million people and rendering extensive areas unfit for agriculture. The Caatinga biome has experienced significant degradation, losing 14.4% of its native vegetation between 1985 and 2023 due to overgrazing and agricultural expansion. These changes have accelerated soil erosion, reduced soil organic m…
