Answer 2

Answer:

Contour ploughing is the farming practice of plowing and/or planting across a slope following its elevation contour lines.

Explanation:

These contour lines create a water break which reduces the formation of rills and gullies during times of heavy precipitation, allowing more time for the water to settle into the soil.

In contour plowing, the ruyts made by the plow run perpendicular rather than parallel to the slopes, generally furrows that curve around the land and are level. This method is also known for preventing tillage erosion.
