Terracing, contouring and leveling of tilled areas are centuries-old techniques for conservation of soil and water. Modern equipment allows much more precise leveling over large distances. Keyline design is a more advanced contouring technique which incorporates roads, fences, silt barriers and irrigation channels into a comprehensive landscape plan.
Other techniques include the planting of cover crops and the use of erosion barriers on disturbed slopes.

How do you prevent farm run-off?
To prevent farm run-off, implement practices such as contour farming and cover cropping, which help reduce soil erosion and enhance water retention. Installing buffer strips, such as grass or trees along waterways, can filter pollutants before they enter water bodies. Additionally, utilizing precision agriculture techniques allows for optimized fertilizer and pesticide application, minimizing excess that could lead to run-off. Regular monitoring of soil health and water quality also aids in identifying and addressing potential run-off issues proactively.
