表 Please select and fill in the relevant technical information according to the following technical classifications for specific technologies.
Technical link Key technical points Implementation
season / month1. Planning and Design The first step involves assessing the topography, soil type, and water flow patterns of the land to design the terraces effectively. This ensures that they are positioned to maximize water retention and soil preservation. 2. Construction Terraces are built by creating embankments or cut-and-fill along the contours of a slope. The embankments are often reinforced with stones or vegetation to prevent erosion. The size and number of terraces depend on the slope's gradient and the land's intended use. 3. Soil Management Terracing improves soil fertility by reducing runoff and enhancing water infiltration. Composting and mulching can further enrich soil quality on the terraces, promoting healthy crop growth. 4. Water Management Terracing can be combined with water harvesting techniques (like swales or check dams) to capture and store rainwater, significantly improving water availability for crops. 5. Crop Selection and Rotation Choosing drought-resistant crops and practicing crop rotation can enhance soil fertility and reduce pest and disease incidence, further supporting sustainable agriculture on terraced lands.
