1. Growing of two or more crops simultaneously in the same field is called inter cropping.
advantage -
• inter cropping gives higher income per unit area than sole cropping.
• It acts as an insurance against failure of crop in abnormal year.
2.Growing of different crops on a land in a pre planned succession - crop rotation
advantages -
•Rotation of crops improves the fertility of the soil and hence, brings about an increase in the production of food grains.
•Rotation of crops helps in saving on nitrogenous fertilizers, because leguminous plants grown during the rotation of crops can fix atmospheric nitrogen in the soil with the help of nitrogen fixing bacteria.
