what is process of terrace farming?
Terrace farming is a technique of farming whereby “steps” known as terraces are built onto the slopes of hills and mountains.
Whenever it rains, instead of rain carrying away the soil nutrients and plants down the slope, they flow to the next terrace.
Every step has an outlet that channels the water to the next step. This helps in keeping some areas dry and others wet.
In very high altitudes, different crops apart from rice can be grown, because rice does not do well in high altitudes.
