Terrace Farming and its Importance / Heal Earth
Terrace farming is a method of cultivating crops on the sides of mountains or hills by planting on graduated terraces cut into the slope.
It also known as step farming, which is a type of farming that uses a series of “steps” or terraces that have been produced in different parts of the world.
Despite its labor-intensive nature, the approach has proven to be beneficial in increasing arable land area and reducing soil erosion and water loss in a variety of terrains.
Because water flows do not wash away the topsoil and nutrients, terracing helps to keep soil cover and fertility.
The idea was also independently developed by the Inca people. The Incas built their aqueduct system so well that it is still used today.
Advantages of Terrace farming
Sedimentation and water pollution are reduced. Water remains in place for long enough for heavy particles to settle, preventing downstream sedimentation and contamination of water bodies, but not long enough to harm crops.
Increases sloped field farmability and productivity.
Contributes to water conservation by reducing and slowing runoff, as well as improving rainwater gathering.
Reduces rill forms, which prevents soil erosion.
Soil conservation is aided.
Adjusts hilly land for cultivation to increase food output.
Increases the diversity of the ecosystem.
Farming on a terrace is an effective way to conserve soil. It does, however, necessitate routine inspection and maintenance. As a result, checking the ridges and grass cover, and improving where necessary, is critical in effective terrace farming. Another problem with terracing is channel sedimentation, which can be remedied by cleaning and planting buffer strips. In addition, the outlets and pipelines should be free of vegetation residue and particles that could clog them.
The Philippine Cordilleras (hills and mountains) Rice Terraces are a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It has a two-thousand-year history.
This farming practice makes use of “steps” carved into the side of a mountain or hill. Various crops are sown on each level. When it rains, the nutrients in the soil are transported down to the next level rather of being washed away. These actions keep the soil and plants from being washed away by water. They were also able to construct aqueducts to transport water to each level using this technology.
Long-term use of terraced farmlands is enabled by the prevention or decrease of soil erosion, as well as soil conservation by terracing. It demonstrates the importance of terracing in long-term agriculture.
The terrace is often a low, flat ridge of earth erected over the slope with a canal for runoff water directly above the ridge in most systems. Terraces are typically designed on a small incline so that water collected in the channel flows slowly toward the terrace exit. Level terraces can be employed in regions where the soils are able to absorb water quickly and rainfall is modest.
Velocity of Runoff
One of the main benefits of terrace farming is that it can preserve the soil of the terraced area from excessive erosion. Erosion occurs when rushing water removes soil from the area it passes through. Terracing slows the flow of water by lowering the length of the slope that water must pass over (i.e. by constructing a level terrace on an otherwise inclined face). This prevents the area’s soil from being washed away in a flood.
Rainwater Harvesting
Level terraces, such as those found in portions of Bali and China, can prevent soil erosion while simultaneously trapping and retaining rainwater. This makes it possible to grow water-intensive crops like rice in these places. Terracing produces flat regions for crops as well as canals that allow water to move between them. If the soil is sufficiently permeable, the water gathered in the terraces can be absorbed into the soil and used to sustain crops.
Saturation of Rainwater
Rainwater saturation of the ground is a key disadvantage of terracing. This occurs when terracing holds an excessive amount of water, which is then absorbed by the ground. Ground saturation is a hazard since it can lead to water overflow during periods of heavy rain. This can result in more harmful runoff than in uncontrolled regions. Terraces can also cause more soil erosion, especially downslope from the terracing, than non-terraced regions if they are not adequately managed.

Did you know that aquaculture is the fastest-growing food production sector In the world? This is as a result of seafood being one of those rare types of food that is very useful to humans and at the same time easily scalable in production. With the help of innovative technologies, such as artificial intelligence and microscopic fungi, almost every country with access to the sea will be able to completely solve the issue of its own seafood shortage. And today we will look at exactly how advanced technologies will help feed the entire planet. People have been going to the sea for food since ancient times. In the last century, fishing has become so widespread that hundreds of marine life species have become endangered. Thus, according to The International Union for the Conservation of Nature, more than 90 species of fish, including sharks, rays, and other cartilaginous fish, are at risk in European waters alone. As Nicholas Dulvy, a marine ecologist at Simon Fraser University in Burnaby, Canada, points out “There’s been no effective movement on fisheries management in the Mediterranean in the last decade”. To make matters worse, different countries have various fishing laws and what is prohibited in one country may easily be allowed in another. This results in fishing boats being able to catch even illegal fish species and simply sell them on another market.

Aquaculture, or fish farming, is the fastest growing form of food production in the world. Most fish farming is done in pens out at sea, but that comes with significant environmental problems. High-tech, land-based fish farms are still a niche part of the industry, but that may well change, as scrutiny about the way our seafood is raised intensifies.

What is Organic Farming? | Agriculture | Biology | FuseSchool
As populations have grown, farming practices have become more intensified to maximise crop yields and ensure we can feed the ever growing population. Fertilisers and pesticides are used on crops, and animals may be kept inside in more densely packed sheds to maximise milk yields, or egg production, or speed up the time needed for the animal to be ready to be sent to market for meat.
An alternative to conventional farming is organic farming.
Organic farming currently accounts for about 1% of agricultural land worldwide. It focuses on sustainability and is thought to have less detrimental effects on the environment than conventional farming. This has led to it being proposed as an alternative to conventional agriculture for helping to overcome the climate change crisis we are currently experiencing. The debate continues, as it is not a perfect solution.
In theory, organic farming should not use chemical fertilisers, herbicides and pesticides or feed additives for livestock. It requires the farmer to use more natural alternatives. This results in lower yields, but the farmer can sell their produce at a higher price because consumers believe the produce is of a higher quality.
Instead of fertilisers, manure is used. This recycles waste and improves the soil structure. However, it is smelly and more difficult to apply than chemical fertilisers, and also means the farmer has less control over the mineral content they are putting into their soils.
Crop rotation is used to reduce disease building up in the soils and to strengthen the soil composition. Certain crops, such as the legume family – so peas and beans, fix nitrogen from the air and increase the nitrates in the soil. This makes the soil much more fertile, and so farmers rotate legumes with their other crops. Growing multiple crops is however less efficient and produces lower yields than specialising in one or few crops however.
Instead of using herbicides, weeding is the preferred organic farming technique. This is of course much more environmentally friendly because it is chemical free but it is very labour intensive. Although this does mean more jobs available, which is a great thing.
Organic farming is thought to maintain the biodiversity better than conventional farming because fewer chemicals are used. There are more bumble bees and insects in an area because pesticides haven’t been used. Weeds and non-crop plants can grow as herbicides aren’t used. Biodiversity benefits the food chain across all levels, from the plants up to the foxes.
These are the theories of organic farming, and is how we farmed for the one hundred thousand years before the industrial revolution. It is generally thought that organic farming is much better for biodiversity, and also produces a healthier product because less chemicals are used on it.
In the second video on organic farming, we will look at some of the problems of organic farming, and the reality of what it means to be an organic farm.

Transcript:
When I tasted the food that I grew it tasted way better than the stuff in the grocery store.
So much of you what you get in the grocery store is hydroponic and it really doesn’t taste like that much. So real soil grown organic food tastes so good and I really wanted to share that with people who didn’t have the capacity like I did at the time. So I
started the CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) program because I thought it was super cool. I love the CSA concept.
I started in my parent’s backyard in Baltimore County…own organic system plan…. 25 acres in Frederick County. The benefit of having my own land was the ability to invest in infrastructure….We grow crops in two different ways: we direct sow them into the ground and we transplant them. With transplants we can really get a jump on the season, and the weeds, and disease as well, and pest pressure by keeping them in a controlled environment before we put them in the ground.
We have a germination chamber that puts the seedlings at the correct temperature so that we get really good germination. Aand then we grow them out in here. These are all our Peppers we have a bunch of different kinds of herbs here. You can see this fancy kind of Basil is that purple. We’ve got cilantro and lettuces and a bunch of brassicas. So we’re growing an array of specialty crops here. I like to say ‘specialty is our specialty.’ This is our water wheel transplanter. These get filled with water and also some fertilizer. All of those trays that you saw in the greenhouse sit here, and up here, and here. That’s mushroom compost that we get from farms in Pennsylvania. I don’t know if you know that Pennsylvania is the mushroom capital of the world. All of our equipment is set up for this bed system. So all the tractors have the same tire width, so that they fit on either side of this bed. Which means that we can not only prep the soil, and put the compost, put the nutrients, create a bed, transplant, but then we can also cultivate. Bryce: Are you able to reuse a lot of this plastic? Emma: No.
Right now the national organic program does not allow
biodegradable plastics to be used on an organic operation. So we do have to remove them each year and
throw them away in order to keep our organic certification.
We have an apiary here (beekeeping)
They pollinate our crops and so they help us get better yields because more of the flowers are pollinated. They’ve been working day and night on creating new boxes, and making splits, and they’re also catching swarms in the area.
Swarms are really really docile so even though there’s bees all over you you can just walk right into them and they’re not going to sting you because bees only sting to protect their house, but when they’re swarming they’re looking for a new home.
We also invest in our soil, that’s a really big one. By treating our soil like it is the key to human survival, which it very much is. And that does require a long-term approach. We’re able to weather harsher conditions by investing in organic matter and all of the different nutrients that the soil needs to really increase its ability to hold and drain water. It’s one of the most important things I feel like I’m doing taking conventional land and regeneratively farming it and nurturing it back organically is not easy, and that’s the situation this planet is in. Somebody’s gotta roll up the sleeves and do the hard work and that is farmers. Creating a really resilient food system based on our local economy is how we’re gonna thrive in a time of climate change. I just don’t see global pandemics, and supplies chain disruptions, and wars or political strife putting us to continually relying on international or across-the-nation food for our daily subsistence. Now that we’re several seasons in and actually acquiring more land. So we’re on 25 acres, but this year we’re actually going to be on 40 acres, and next year we’re going to be on 70.
