History of Terrace Farming in Vietnam:

- Vietnam is not a flat country. That means that it is near impossible to farm there which is a necessity in order to live. If people try to grow plants, they will slide down the hillside, as well as the rainwater used to keep them alive.

- Vietnam also gets a large amount of rainfall, so water pools in the few, low, flat places that could be used to farm. This is why a different way of farming is so very important for a country like Vietnam.
