Step farming or terrace farming is common in hills to check soil erosion through water current on the slopes. It provides a physical barrier to soil erosion by water. The mountain is made into steps that slows down the speed of rainwater preventing damage to crops.

Explanation:
Why terrace farming is better in hills?
=> The downhill wall of each terrace supports the weight of the soil above it, allowing you to back-fill lower areas on the slope and dig out upper areas, creating much more workable spaces. Usually, the soil is held in place with the aid of simple retaining walls, with their distance from one another down the hill dependent on the slope.
