You make rows across the slope, and you have to put in terrace rows to hold the plowed/turned soil.

If this is for a vegetable garden, make a terrace row about every 3 to 4 rows. This is a Row that is taller and wider than the rest and is not planted...it acts like a dam to keep erosion from destroying the entire garden. And it can even be ground that is not as turned as much as where you plant.

If this is for landscaping, be sure and use materials that will last...such as rocks or blocks, even short walls made of block, brick or stone...even landscape timbers will rot.
