Significance of prohibiting illegal excavation of black soil

Prohibiting illegal excavation of black soil can protect China's very precious land resources.

Black soil is recognized as the most fertile soil in the world, and its formation is extremely slow. It takes 200 to 400 years to form a black soil layer with a thickness of 1 cm under natural conditions, which shows that black soil resources are extremely precious.

In recent years, the black soil has gradually become thinner, and the organic matter content in the land has gradually decreased. What is more serious is that illegal exploitation of black soil has led to soil erosion.

Therefore, the government needs to make laws and regulations to prohibit illegal excavation of black soil.
