Desertification This is the process that sees productive land turned into non-productive desert. It usually affects dry areas on the edge of deserts, eg The Sahel, south of the Sahara Desert in Africa.
Desertification results from the degradation of the natural ecosystems in drylands and constitutes a major global problem (UNEP, 1992). It is defined by the CCD as  Land use degradation in arid, semi-arid and dry humid areas resulting from various factors, including climatic variation and human activities .emi-arid zones are more extensive and occur in all the continents, and cover up to 18 percent of the land surface. They have highly seasonal rainfall regimes and a mean rainfall of up to 500 mm in winter-rainfall areas and up to 800 mm in summer-rainfall areas.
