Answer:
Strip cropping is a method of farming which involves cultivating a field partitioned into long, narrow strips which are alternated in a crop rotation system. It is used when a slope is too steep or when there is no alternative method of preventing soil erosion.

Strip farming is the growing of crops in narrow, systematic strips or bands to reduce soil erosion from wind and water and otherwise improve agricultural production.
The origins of strip farming can be traced to the enclosure movement of post medieval Great Britain. Landlords consolidated the small, fragmented strips of land farmed by tenant peasants into large block fields in an effort to increase agricultural production.
