Africa's increasing problem of deforestation could most likely result in a: a greater likelihood of drought. b: an abundance of job opportunities. c: an increase in foreign industrial development. d: a decrease in the usability of soil for agriculture.

Hey There!

Here is your

The answer is option D "a decrease in the usability of soil for agriculture".

Reason:

Deforestation is when people use machinery to take down trees. It is a very bad thing for animals habitats, and it destroys homes for many animals causing deaths for animals. Also it damages the soil therefore cannot plant any crops ruining agriculture. 

Also

Its not option A because even though the machinery does pump carbon dioxide into the air which could cause global warming which could cause droughts but sometimes people dont use machinery. Its not option B because it ruins the land therefore they have to fix the land before they will be about to hire workers to plant crops (farmers). Its also not option C because deforestation ruins land and they cant build or plant anything on that land so it would be a decrease.

Therefore the answer should be option D.
