Briefly explain soil conservation in plains.

Open in App
Solution

Instructions:
Mention the conservation methods in plains

Solution:
Building Rock Dams along the running water comes handy. Rocks, sandbags, or gravel are piled up along the running water thereby reducing the speed of flowing water. In this way it helps in reducing soil erosion.​

Another method to prevent soil erosion​ on plains​ is strip cropping. Here strips of grass are left to grow between crops. This helps in breaking the flow of the wind and thereby reducing soil erosion.
