Answer:
Steps taken are:
1) Plugging of gullies formed due to rill/gully erosion so as to prevent further topsoil loss.
2) Terrace or contour farming so as to check the velocity of speeding rainwater flowing downhill or to prevent landslides.
3) Afforestation so as to hold on to the soil particles tightly during landslided or speeding winds.
4) Planting shelter belts at the bottom of the hills.
5) Banning shifting agriculture.
