Terracing: Terracing involves creating step-like platforms on hillsides to reduce soil erosion by controlling runoff and preventing rainwater from washing away topsoil.
Cover crops: Cover crops are plants grown between main crop seasons to protect the soil from erosion. They help prevent wind and water from directly impacting bare soil.
Conservation tillage: Conservation tillage refers to farming practices that minimize disturbance to the soil. It includes techniques like no-till farming, where crop residue is left on fields instead of being plowed under. These practices help reduce erosion by maintaining ground cover.
