Brazil one of the largest countries in the world has many soil problems from sinkholes, erosion and deforestation. From Google I have found many videos of Brazilian soil and its problems.
I had been taught back in the 70's that if only we could farm the rainforest of Brazil we could feed the world. I guess the professor who taught me this forgot about what could happen when we cut down the amazing rainforest of Brazil.

What Brazil is doing to help
I guess we can't feed the world but will we still need to feed the people of Brazil and people need land to grow food. I pray today's Brazilian knows how very valuable the forest are. The soil of this vast country and with today's farming practices possibly we can help stop soil erosion and other problems. Brazil has come a long ways and continues to grow.
nice touch with the videos. I miss the links for your source of information in your text.
