Answer:
Contour ploughing follows the “natural shape” of the slope without altering it. Terrace farming alters the shape of the slope to produce flat areas that provide a catchment for water. ... Both are used to reduce soil erosion from tilled fields on slopes.

Answer:
Contour bunding and contour ploughing is the two techniques used to prevent soil from getting eroded by wind and water flow.
Contour bunding: It is farming practice in which planting is followed by a soil elevation which is constructed manually.
Contour ploughing: It is ploughing, done at right angles to the hill slopes, ridges and furrows so that the elevation prevents soil erosion by wind and water.
