Read the given paragraph carefully and answer the following question.  Soil erosion is a naturally occurring process that affects all land forms. It refers to the wearing away of a field's topsoil by natural physical forces of water and wind. Topsoil, which is high in organic matter, fertility and soil life, majorly contributes to the growth of crops. Soil erosion reduces cropland productivity and causes the pollution of watercourses, weltlands and lakes. Which of the following options does NOT show steps taken to prevent soil erosion?
Consider the following statements and choose the correct answer:
1. Control of land loss can be attempted through restoring forest and grass cover to check erosion and floods
