Answer 2

Answer:

The three types of cropping are:  

1)      Mixed Cropping:  

As the name suggests, in mixed cropping, "two or more types of crops" are grown together on the "same piece of land" which reduces the risk of failing of crops. Some examples of this type of cropping are : "Wheat + Gram, Wheat + Mustard"  

2)      Inter-cropping:  

In inter cropping, two or more crops are grown together on the "same field "but in a "defined pattern". Both the crops can be "individually harvested and threshed". Some examples of this type of cropping are: "Soyabean + Maize"  

3)      Crop Rotation:

As the name suggests, this type of farming involves growing different crops on the "same piece of land" in "pre- planned rotation". This technique allows soil to replenish itself an gain lost nutrients. Some examples of this type of cropping are: "Maize-Mustard, Rice-Wheat, Maize-Mustard-Sugarcane-Fenugreek"
