globally, 65% of degradation is caused by too much animal grazing and deforestation, constituting 35% and 30% respectively. A further 28% of global degradation is caused by the over-cultivation of crops, while other causes accounted for only 7%.
Regarding regions affected. europe, with the highest percentage of land degraded (23%), had nearly 10% of degradation due to deforestation. At the same time, the impact of this cause on Oceania and North America was minimal, recording only 1.7% and 0.2% of land degraded, respectively. europe also suffered from over-cultivation (7.7%) and too much grazing (5.5%).
