WHAT'S NEW IN TERRACES
The latest information on "'tucks in the hillsides" concerns
the disposal of water held back by terraces. One farmer had
gullies to form in his field because the terrace outlet was faulty.
When he filled the gullies and planted grass along the outlet he
was able to control erosion as the water left the terraces.
Farmers who want to hold the water behind the terraces un-
til it has a chance to seep into the ground do this by closing
the terrace ends. More acre-inches of rainfall can be stored in
the ground when this is done.
Your County Agent and Soil Conservation Service can help you
with you; terracing problems.
