stone lines

stone lines
  Stone lines are long rows of stones piled together to form barriers across your field. They do not store water. They do something else that is important if you want to prevent erosion. The stone lines slow the flow of water across your fields. They work on both flat and sloping land. The stone lines force the water to spread over the soil so that it can be absorbed into the soil instead of running off the field.
