Answer:

Terrace Farming:

A terrace farm is a levelled section of a hilly cultivated area, designed as a method of soil conservation to slow or prevent the rapid surface runoff. Often a hilly land is changed into multiple terraces, giving it a step-like appearance.

How it is done:

Terrace farming is carried out on the slopes of the mountains. Terraces are built on the slopes of the mountains to create flat lands to grow crops. Terrace farming is useful as it slows down the speed of water running down the mountains. This conserves fertile top soil.
