How did overgrazing help cause the fall of Ghana?

Answer:
The Almoravids moved into Ghana, they brought herds of animals with them. The animals ate all the grass and many pasture, leaving the soil exposed to hot desert winds. These wind blew away the soil making the land worthless for farming or herding, unable to grow crops, so farmers had to leave to search for new homes.
