Question

Can you differentiate between crop imrovment and crop rotation?

Answer 1

$\textbf{Answer:}$

$\textbf{CROP ROTATION}$

✔Crop rotation is the practice of growing different crops on the same piece of land in a pre planned succession.

✔If the same piece of land is used to grow the same crop year after year, the soil loses much fertility and this leads to decrease in the crop yield.

✔This also leads to the increasing number of insect pests and depletion of nutrients.

✔The change of crops by crop rotation helps in maintaining soil fertility.

$\textbf{CROP IMPROVEMENT}$

✔Crop improvement generally means improving the crop varieties, increasing crop production and improving soil of the field by various methods.

✔The process by which high variety seeds can be obtained is hybridisation in order to obtain a new and improved variety of crop.

✔Farmers use different methods like nutrition management, irrigation, and cropping patterns (crop rotation).

✔Farmers also use chemical and artificial manures and fertilizers in order to increase crop production for crop improvement.
