Question

define strip farming and shelter belt??


:-)​

Answer 1

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.

Shelter belts- a line of trees or shrubs planted to protect an area, especially a field of crops, from fierce weather.

Answer 2

Answer:

Shelter belt: Trees are planted in a straight line to prevent soil erosion. These shelter belts stabilise dunes and prevent soil from wind erosion. Strip cropping: To prevent the loss of soil due to the action of winds, large fields are divided into strips. Grass is then allowed to grow in between the strips.
