for preventing soil erosion in hilly areas further steps can be taken
1. terrace farming/cultivation- it is the process in which terraces are build across the slopes to slow down the speed of flowing water.
2. strip farming- large fields can be divided into strips.strips of grass can be left to grow between the crops.this breaks the force of wind.
3. contour ploughing- ploughing along the contour lines tobcheck the flow of down water.

this is one of the important question for board exams of class 10
pls comment if the answer was helpful

  1. Contour ploughing: it's a method in which the farmer ploughs parellel to the contours of a hill slope to form a natural barrier for water to flow down from the slopes.
  2. Terrace farming: construction of steps along the hilly areas by cutting the rock layers to reduce the flow of rivers.
