High erosion rates in Madagascar are caused primarily by B. The government's failure to pass laws restricting logging.

Deforestation in the central highlands of Madagascar has produced widespread soil erotion. For this country, whose economy relies on agricultural production, the cost of losing soil is especially high.

In Madagascar's east there is the Masoala Peninsula, which consists of timber, a very valuable hardwood. Rainforests, in which ebony and rosewood predominate the most, are degraded in order to satisfy the international market's high demand.

The main problem relies on the illegal trading of rosewood, highly demanded by Asian countries, especially China. And even though rosewood logging and exportation in Madagascar is banned, the government has failed to intervene, making it possible for the illicit industry to flourish.
