Definición

  • Terraces and raised fields are earthworks created to improve cultivation conditions by manipulating slope, hydrology, soil fertility, erosion, and microclimate. While both require intense labor, they allow agriculture to flourish in potentially inhospitable topography and environments. [Source: Encyclopedia of Environment and Society; Terraces and Raised Fields]
