Solution
The correct option is D Plough
Ploughing the land in hilly areas loosens the fertile top-soil. This loosened fertile soil is prone to erosion. Natural agents like wind and water carry it to the foot of the hills or surrounding villages. The soil that remains once this top part of the soil is lost, it’s not fit for cultivation.
