Detailed Solution

Terrace cultivation is practiced in Uttarakhand.
Terrace cultivation is done mainly in the states that lie in hilly areas or mountainous areas. The Western and Central Himalayas have well-developed terrace farming. In this method, steps are cut out on the slopes of the hills to make terraces. The terraces reduce both the speed and the amount of water moving across the soil, which reduces soil erosion. In terrace farming, the water can not flows away easily. That is why terrace farming is well known for growing rice paddies because the rice needs a lot of water and a flat surface.
