Description:

Raised fields around Lake Titicaca, Bolivia. These are the remains of extensive ancient agriculture of the Andean people, where parallel canals were dug between low mounds used for crops. This arrangement increased drainage and improved soil. Photo from old ASLO slide collection; taken by M. Brenner; scanned by K.L. Schulz.
