    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.

    Cadastral survey is a comprehensive study of land, its location, its value, etc. A cadastral survey shows the extent, boundaries, value, and ownership of land. Through these surveys, authorities assign a numerical identity to land.

    In steelmaking, impurities such as nitrogen, silicon, phosphorous, sulfur and excess carbon are removed from the source iron and alloying elements such as manganese, nickel, chromium, carbon, and vanadium are added to produce different grades of steel.

    Lime stabilization with deep injection :

    yes definitely it is possible that the embankment settlement can be reduced at embankment junction by lime stabilization with deep injection


    The process of injecting a lime slurry into the subsurface up to some depth of some feet it is one of the innovative and comparatively very good technique for an engineer as well as for labour.


    The main purpose of constructing climb up to some depth is to fill voids with a chemical compound


    Thank you.
