Plowing creates grooves that follow the contours of the field. In other words, a certain groove is more or less the same height along its entire length.
This provides barriers to rainwater, which otherwise would have followed a downward trend. Rainwater will have time to enjoy the earth. When I ran a route that would speak to her, so it would be stopped or slowed down erosion.
If you plow a field in a straight line in certain regions of the slots has gone to hell. These are good channels of runoff when it rains. And enough rain to gully erosion.
If you plow on the contour, each groove and acts like a miniature Ridge dam to retain water and a chance to soak
