Italian term or phrase: impianti di antiche colture
Same text: I've tentatively put "how crops were planted in ancient times", but am not sure this is correct.

L’identificazione dei resti carbonizzati di parti di piante, (foglie, legni, semi) e il riconoscimento dei pollini depositati sul terreno prima dell’eruzione, le tracce di coltura, quali il disegno delle aiuole, i solchi di aratura, le fonde e le “porche” (le cavità che una volta ospitavano le radici delle piante), messi a confronto con gli altri elementi prima descritti, permettono di ricostruire con precisione gli impianti delle antiche colture.

I'm still wavering between the two solutions offere, but since the Italian doesn't include the word "techniche" I've decided to stick with this phrase, which is more general.
