Step farming is done on mountains because in places where there is only rugged,barren land the people had to find some way of farming, so they cut what some people call "steps" so they have a flat surface to farm on , they also us step farming because if you us a piece of land for a long time eventually the nutrients is gone in the soil with step farming you rotate between different steps :so you do the first one for a little while gather your finished crops when the seasons done move onto the second step when that seasons done move to the third by the time you are done with the third step the first step is all ready to go and so on.
Step farming on mountains is done to maximize agricultural space in areas with limited flat land. By creating terraces or steps on the mountain slopes, it reduces soil erosion, conserves water, and creates flat areas for crops to be grown. This method also utilizes gravity to help with irrigation and drainage in mountainous regions.
Subsistence farming.
Terrace farming.
People living in mountains may work in farming, herding, tourism, forestry, mining, or traditional crafts. Many also work in professions related to mountain conservation, research, or outdoor guiding.
The Aztecs built their capital, Tenochtitlan, on an island in Lake Texcoco surrounded by mountains for defense. They also used mountains for agriculture, terracing the slopes for farming, and worshiped them as sacred sites, believing that the gods resided in the mountains.
People living in mountains often work in industries related to tourism, agriculture (farming or animal husbandry), forestry, or mining. Additionally, they may have occupations like mountain guides, park rangers, artisans, or small business owners catering to the needs of tourists and local communities.
In hilly areas, people grow crops by cutting steps in the mountains. This is known as step farming.
Yes, it was very moutainous. The incas used the mountains for farming using step terraces.
Most likely no because Western Greece is full of mountains. Farming is most likely done in the east as this is where the flattest lands are.
there's no difference between them as they both are done on slopes.. :) :P
The most famous example of terrace farming is in Mexico, where the Aztecs used it. However, it is also done in India and other Asian countries. It is basically where farming takes place on "steps" built into hills or mountains.
nope the complete opposite used by farmers in mountains to grow crops like a step effect
Organic farming can be done anywhere in the world.
I believe that most of the farming was done on the plateau.
In the river valleys
