What is contour ploughing?

06-May-2025 |  Asked by: Dhruv Panchal

All Answers:

Ans.

Contour ploughing (or contour ploughing) is an agricultural practice in which ploughing is done along the natural contours of a slope, rather than up and down the hill. Contour ploughing technique helps reduce soil erosion, conserve rainwater, and improve soil fertility by slowing down water runoff.

Key Benefits of Contour Ploughing:

  1. Soil erosion is reduced.
  2. Improves water retention in the soil.
  3. Prevents loss of topsoil and nutrients.
  4. Promotes sustainable farming on hilly or sloped land.

Contour Ploughing method is especially useful in mountain regions and is a common practice in conservation agriculture.
