Which risk increases when soluble bedrock underlies farmland?

💡 Explanation

Increased cave collapse occurs when farmland lies on soluble bedrock because acid rain enhances dissolution via chemical weathering; therefore collapse risk increases above uncultivated areas, rather than decreased water erosion due to modified flow patterns.
