History

Which problem increased when early terrace farming lacked proper planning?

A)Decreased dissolved oxygen level
B)Accelerated topsoil alkalinity increase
C)Induced slope instability events
D)Exacerbated regional temperature deviation

💡 Explanation

Slope instability became a major issue with poorly planned terraces through a mechanism of increased hydrostatic pressure. Because the terraced soil retains more water, this reduces shear strength, therefore, slopes become prone to landslides rather than the intended increased crop yields.
