The United States,【C17】______the most careful measurements have been done, discovered in 1982 that about one-fifth of its farmland was losing topsoil at a rate【C18】______to diminish the soil’s productivity. The country subsequently【C19】______a program to convert 11 per cent of its cropped land to meadow or forest. Topsoil in India and China is【C20】______much faster than in America.
