Step farming is done on mountains because in places where there is only rugged,barren land the people had to find some way of farming, so they cut what some people call "steps" so they have a flat surface to farm on , they also us step farming because if you us a piece of land for a long time eventually the nutrients is gone in the soil with step farming you rotate between different steps :so you do the first one for a little while gather your finished crops when the seasons done move onto the second step when that seasons done move to the third by the time you are done with the third step the first step is all ready to go and so on.
