Durch Entwaldung (deforestation) halten keine Baumwurzeln mehr die Erde auf den Huegeln, es bilden sich riesige "lavaka" (Erosionswunden) in den Huegeln, die Erde, mit denen diese "Loecher" gefuellt waren, wird in der Regenzeit abgetragen und von den Fluessen ins Meer getragen.
Das Wasser in der Bucht vor Mahajanga hier ist in dieser Zeit rot von der Erde.
Speziell die Bodenerosion bekaempft ein von der deutschen kfW finanziertes Projekt namens PLAE - "Projet de Lutte Anti-Erosion", also "Projekt fuer den Kampf gegen die Bodenerosion".
