History

Which outcome occurred frequently due to early terrace farming?

A)Increased topsoil erosion downslope
B)Enhanced nitrogen fixation in soil
C)Decreased water runoff velocity
D)Higher microbial biomass production

💡 Explanation

Terraces, when overwhelmed or poorly maintained, led to increased erosion because downslope water and soil collected momentum, increasing sheer stress; therefore, erosion increased, rather than offering better water storage or modifying soil chemistry.
