Abstract: Deserts are amid "fragile ecosystems". Desertification includes land degradation in arid, semi-arid and dry sub humid areas resulting from various factors, including climatic variations and anthropogenic happenings. The trend is more likely to become irreversible if the environment becomes drier with prolonged droughts, and the soil becomes further degraded through erosion and compaction. Drought drains a land of its life-supporting capabilities and declining groundwater tables, increasing erosion, and the disappearance of native vegetation characterise the process. Desertification has affected as much as one-sixth of the world's population, seventy percent of all drylands, and one-quarter of the total land area of the world. This has resulted in widespread poverty as well as in the degradation of billion hectares of rangeland and cropland. Desertification became well known in the 1930's, when parts of the Great Plains in the United States turned into the "Dust Bowl" as a result of drought and poor practices in farming, although the term itself was not used until almost 1950. During the dust bowl period, millions of people were forced to abandon their farms and livelihoods. Greatly improved methods of agriculture and land and water management in the Great Plains have prevented that disaster from recurring, but desertification presently affects millions of people in almost every continent. The present paper is an introspection unfolding the impact of desertification in various deserts of the world and remedial measures for repairment.
