✨Hi friend!! here is the answer!!

==> Strip cropping is the growing of a cultivated crop in strips alternating with strips of a sod-forming crop arranged to follow an appropriate contour of the land and minimise erosion. Strip cropping is help to stop the soil erosion by creating natural dams for water to helping​ to preserve the strength of the soil.

Strip cropping is a method of farming which involves cultivating a field partitioned into long, narrow strips which are alternated in a crop rotation system. It is used when a slope is too steep or when there is no alternative method of preventing soil erosion. The most common crop choices for strip cropping are closely sown crops such as hay, wheat, or other forages which are alternated with strips of row crops, such as corn, soybeans, cotton, or sugar beets.[1] The forages serve primarily as cover crops. In certain systems, strips in particularly eroded areas are used to grow permanent protective vegetation; in most systems, however, all strips are alternated on an annual basis.[2]
