If a crop has been grown for several years without proper fertilization then it would be a necessity to refertilize (remineralize) the soil. But on forested land or grasslands where no real removal is occuring, remineralization is not needed, matter cannot be destroyed, only converted, so they will replenish themselves. In tropical areas most of the nutrients are contained in the vegetation. Only if a plant dies does a new growth occur. If wind or other types of erosion are occuring then remineralization does not come first revegetation does. Think about it.
