Misuse of agricultural lands causes them to become barren and causes other soil problems that are difficult to recycle, making agricultural activities difficult. The areas utilized by brick-and-tile industries for their raw material requirements are the most harmful to the environment and the most challenging to restore for agriculture after usage. Given that the restricted soil is formed over thousands of years, fertilization efforts are highly expensive economically, and it is also technically difficult to speed soil formation or increase its volume, it is virtually impossible to return these lands to agricultural activity. There are numerous examples of lands that are thrown out of agriculture after being used as raw materials by brick-tile factories.
