• sedimentation increases with an increase in land used for agriculture

  • Answers
  • Sedimentation increases with an increase in land used for agriculture because plowing of soil or other agricultural practices can disturb the surface soils, leading to greater runoff when it rains. This runoff may carry sediment, nutrients, and pollutants from farmland into rivers, lakes, and coastal waters, polluting these water bodies and causing sediment accumulation.
