Drag and drop the boxes into the correct order.

Order the stages of desertification

Grazing intensity increases, and there is more demand for fuelwood
Over time, the land is restored
Local people start to mitigate the problem. They plant trees, build bunds, and change their farming techniques to trap soil
The trees die and the land becomes bare
Population increases. Due to changing land ownership, the area grazed is reduced meaning that the herders cannot move on so much
The land is grazed by nomadic herders. They move their livestock frequently meaning that the vegetation recovers
The area of desert expands as the soil is eroded. There are frequent dust storms
Food shortages or even famine may occur

This is your 1^st attempt! The marking algorithm gives more marks for getting the right order first time.
