: : The desert area is expanding at growing rates every year. So why don't we change all the desert areas to productive farmlands? I know this project requires a great sum of money, but it's worthy and essential. By doing this, there will be more food supply for the growing population.
: I think to make desert into farmland is too expensive.
: The area whose soil resources are used up changes into desert gradually.
: Those areas are usually located in poor countries where people do not have money.
