Difference between contour cultivation and Terrace cultivation |
| Answer» Contour ploughing is the ploughing, done at right angles to the hill slopes, ridges and furrows so that the elevation prevents soil erosion by wind and water. In terracing, wide steps are cut around the slopes of hills to prevent soil erosion. Terrace farming alters the shape of the slope to produce flat areas whereas contour ploughing follows the natural shape of the slope without altering it. | |
