The serious soil erosion situation is frequently taken care of by terracing. We learn how terracing is done, its advantages and see land so cultivated. Terracing is used successfully for growing potatoes, tobacco, truck farming and for fruit culture. Cover crops are planted and when turned under add fertility to the soil.
