On the other hand, three regions emerge the proportion of each major effects from the table. The North America land degraded by over-cultivation was 3.3%, by over-grazing was 1.5%, and by deforestation was 0.2%, respectively and total was 5%. While Europe degraded from deforestation was 9.8%, over-cultivation was 7.7%, over-grazing was 5.5%, and total, 23%. Oceania’s land degradation caused by over-grazing was 11.3%, deforestation was 1.7% and non-over-cultivation was contributed, and the total was 13%.
