The technique improved drainage by creating raised areas of cultivation and furrows to carry away water. The medieval strip field system caused the rigs to be long and thin. The system was applied during the medieval and post-medieval periods especially in Scotland where examples of the corrugated landscape of raised rigs and deep furrows survive in some areas today.
