it is a very approximate form of levelling in which sights are taken as largeas possible. In this method a line of levels is run to determine approximately reduced levelsof the points carried out with more rapidly and less precision. It is a levelling that is done toconnect benchmark to the starting point of the survey line. In this levelling only back sightand fore sight readings are taken and auto level is moved strictly on the line joining benchmark and starting point of survey line

Contour farming is an agricultural practice where steps are cut out on a sloped field so as to provide steps of flat land (same contour) for cultivation. The potential benefits are a check on erosion, better rainfall usage, more infiltration, and reduction in the need for irrigation. It is feasibleRead more
Contour farming is an agricultural practice where steps are cut out on a sloped field so as to provide steps of flat land (same contour) for cultivation. The potential benefits are a check on erosion, better rainfall usage, more infiltration, and reduction in the need for irrigation.
It is feasible on all slopy regions to accept on those with highly erodible soils and soils that allow little infiltration.
