← HistoryWhich outcome develops when terracing is improperly compacted?
A)Increased soil erosion and instability✓
B)Enhanced crop yield immediately after
C)Decreased water runoff initially only
D)Improved structural integrity initially only
💡 Explanation
Soil erosion and instability increase because inadequate COMPACTION creates weakened soil; poorly compacted soil loses structural support, therefore terraces fail, rather than offering immediate yield improvements or stable slopes.
