Question

In the hilly areas of the Ganga-Brahmaputra Basin, a unique type of farming called __________________ is practised.

• A. strip farming
• B. slash-and-burn cultivation
• C. terrace farming
• D. precision farming

Answer 1

The correct option is C terrace farming

In the hilly areas, agriculture is not easy because there are steep slopes on the land. To remedy this, people cut the slope into steps, so the water and the nutrients, stay at each level, nourishing the plants for a long time.
This style of farming is called terrace farming.
