Scientists have warned that Britain's farming soil could run out in 60 years leading to a food crisis.
Over use of land has resulted into fertile soil being used up quicker than it can be replenished leaving the government to come up with plans to protect the soil.
And it's not only Britain that is facing trouble; soil in China is being used 57 times quicker it can be replenished, Europe 17 times, America 10 times and Australia 5 times.
An Australian conference heard the figures and warned the problem could lead to a global food crisis in the future.
