In what road conditions is the technique of engine braking particularly recommended when driving an agricultural tractor?

Explanation

Correct answer: On a slippery surface.

Engine braking is particularly recommended on a slippery surface, as it allows for a smooth and gradual reduction in speed. This prevents the wheels from locking abruptly, which can occur when using the service brake, leading to a loss of grip and skidding.
