True

Explanation:

Desertification can be defined as the process whereby a previously fertile land is degraded permanently and thereby becomes unproductive.

Desertification can be caused by human effects such as overgrazing. It can also be caused by changes in climate.

One of the ways to prevent desertification is by protecting land and soil from erosion by incorporating land and water management systems.
