Answer 2

Answer:

Contour barriers are contour strips that intercept downslope flowing water and soil particles. These barriers slow down the water movement and reduce its erosive force. They also filter out and trap many of the suspended soil particles, keeping them from being washed out of the field. They are planted above hillside ditches to prevent them from filling with soil and also by themselves to prevent hillside erosion.
