Solution

The correct option is B terrace
The growing of crops on steps on the slopes of hills and mountains is called terrace farming. These steps called terraces are built to help slow down the flow of rain water in the mountains thus helping distributing the nutrients of the soil across the plants grown in each step.

Organic farming is a method that involves growing crops without the use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides. Terrace farming can also be made organic.
