Final answer:

Desertification results in the drying out of fertile land, leading to dust bowls and loss of soil quality.


Explanation:

Desertification is a negative effect that occurs when there is a decrease in air quality. It leads to the drying out of fertile land, resulting in dust bowls and a loss of soil fertility.

One of the main causes of desertification is overgrazing of livestock which further degrades soil quality and contributes to land turning into desert.

Additionally, the decline in soil productivity can result from wind and water erosion, soil compaction, and loss of soil organic matter.
