Which risk increases for terrace farming when deforestation accelerates upslope?

💡 Explanation

Reduced tree root cohesion causes increased soil erosion via surface runoff, due to decreased soil structure support affecting nutrient retention. Therefore, terraces experience fertility loss, rather than direct sun damage which would affect crops rather than soil.
