When the framers designed the US Constitution they did not give the Federal government much power so power was balanced between States and Central Government. But the Federal government has gained more and more power over time. At the same time, the States were restricted over the years, when the Framers did not imagine doing so.
Both of these situations can be good or bad. For example, making the States respect the Bill of Rights was a good thing when individuals had their basic rights stripped on a State level. So making only the Federal government respect the Bill of Rights did not make much sense.
At the same time, the Federal Government has shown much power that was not designed and showed a few issues over the years, especially with the Executive Branch that had in a few opportunities overstepped its powers.
Answer:
The steps prevented soil from washing away and made it easier to irrigate crops.
The steps increased the amount of land that farmers could grow crops on.
Explanation:
Terrace farming primary benefit is to reduce the speed of run off water which leads usually lead to erosion therefore conserving land and water.
It is method of farming carried out in mountainous region,where the sloppy nature of the mountain and the effects of acceleration due to gravity(g),increases the velocity of rain water washing the top soil on the mountain,removing the top soil and therefore washing away the nutrients as wastes.
To reduce the rate of velocity,terraces are built on the slope of the mountain,therefore protecting the topmost soil layer from been washed away by erosion,thus the soil fertility is conserved, and crops could be grown on the terrace. Therefore by allowing the use of sloppy land area of the mountain for farming ,terrace farming increases the land that the farmers could used for crops propagation.This would have been impossible without the creation of the terraces.
In addition, since the grassed water ways are not needed for water supply there is maximum land area available for farming.
