Detailed Solution

In terrace farming, the land on a hill slope is made into Flat plots.
Terrace farming is one of the farming practices done in hilly areas. Weeds are cleared from the hill slope and carved out the flat plots into step-like structures. The sides of the flat carved-out pieces of land are raised in all directions to hold water. The stagnant water on the slope helps to cultivate rice in hilly areas. This technique is used in hilly areas as rainwater washes nutrients from the soil and creates soil erosion. This way, people can hold running rainwater from the hill slopes to cultivate paddy. It helps to prevent soil erosion and retain the nutrients of the soil. It is considered one of the best practices for rice cultivation.
