Terraced Land Reduces Runoff on Ottawa Farm
Soil Conservation Service notes terraced land and contour tillage cut soil loss and runoff. On Miss Beatrice Martin’s 73 acre farm in Northwest Franklin County the program improves moisture storage, with local farmer Harry Martin reporting rainwater conserved rather than spilling over the lake spillway. A full erosion control program operates on her farm in cooperation with CCC Camp, and similar efforts are under way on other farms in the area.
