Abandoned farmland has been increasing, with a billion acres — an area half the size of Australia — lost globally. Ecologists are increasingly pointing to the potential of these lands and of degraded forests as neglected resources for rewilding and for capturing carbon.
That “half the size of Australia” stat is for global abandoned farm land, in case you were initially confused as I was that they were saying Bulgaria had that much abandoned farm land while being less than a tenth the size of Australia.
Edit: removed redundant words that were unnecessary
