Question

what Is
a. mixed cropping
b. inter cropping
c. crop rotation

Answer 1

Mixed cropping refers to the practice of growing two or more crops together on the same piece of land in one crop season. One of the most important advantages of mixed cropping is that even under adverse conditions all the crops do not get destroyed.

Intercropping is a multiple cropping practice involving growing two or more crops in proximity. The most common goal of intercropping is to produce a greater yield on a given piece of land by making use of resources that would otherwise not be utilized by a single crop.

Crop rotation is practice of growing different crops in succession on a piece of land. The basic aim of crop rotation is to maintain the soil fertility.

Answer 2

a) In agriculture, multiple cropping is the practice of growing two or more crops in the same piece of land in same growing seasons instead of one crop. It is a form of polyculture. 

b)Intercropping is a multiple cropping practice involving growing two or more crops in proximity. The most common goal of intercropping is to produce a greater yield on a given piece of land by making use of resources or ecological processes that would otherwise not be utilized by a single crop.

C) Crop rotation is the practice of growing a series of dissimilar or different types of crops in the same area in sequenced seasons. It is done so that the soil of farms is not used for only one set of nutrients. It helps in reducing soil erosion and increases soil fertility and crop yield.
