Explanation:

Terracing - Cultivation of terraces on slopes are known to be very beneficial in preventing soil erosion. The terrace walls are known to hold the soil well in place. Terraces with low wooden walls are known to be the best.

Answer 2

Answer:

The correct answer of this question is option (c) terrace cultivation.

EXPLANATION:

The most appropriate method to verify soil erosion on steep slopes is terrace cultivation.Terrace farming is a method of farming whereby “steps” known as terraces are built onto the slopes of hills and mountains. When it rains, instead of rain carrying away the soil nutrients and plants down the slope, they flow to the next terrace. Every step has an outlet which channels water to the next step.

Terrace cultivation :-

Terrace cultivation is the method of growing crops on sides of hills, mountains and steep slopes by planting on graduated terraces built into the slope. Though, the terrace cultivation is labour intensive but this method has been employed effectively to maximize arable land area in variable terrains and to reduce soil erosion and water loss. In most of the systems the terrace is low, flat ridge of earth built across the slope, with a channel for runoff water just above the ridge. Usually, terraces are built on a straight grade so that the water caught in the channel moves slowly toward the terrace outlet. In areas where soils are able to take in water readily and rainfall is relatively low, level terraces may be used.
