As mentioned, what you are doing works great. One thing I might suggest doing, is on inclined grades, or on hillsides. Make the base of the road all cut. Not 1/2 cut, 1/2 fill. After many years of repairing roads that have slipped, using the 1/2 cut, 1/2 fill method, going with a solid base to start with is the way to go.
Definitely more work, but worth it...
So you are saying to build a tractor road terrace on a side hill instead of cutting the high side to fill the low side you would cut deep enough so that the level cut went all the way across the terrace. Would you then spread the removed material as an even layer on top of the cut or move it else where ?
