A. clear-cutting

Clear-cutting is an agricultural practice that involves the removal of all trees in a specific area, which is often done to make way for agriculture. This practice is closely linked to deforestation, as it leads to the loss of forests and the destruction of ecosystems. The other options, such as crop rotation, irrigation, and over-fertilization, do not typically lead to deforestation in the same direct manner.
