Question

what is mean by intercropping and mixed​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Mixed cropping refers to a cropping technique in which two or more plants or crops are cultivated simultaneously in the same piece of land or farm. The seeds of plants are mixed before sowing. This technique is practiced to decrease the risk of total crop failure due to adverse climatic conditions or less rainfall.

One crop may be the main crop and rest may be the subsidiaries. In general, it is believed that planting multiple crops simultaneously helps save space as different crops in the same field usually ripen at different seasons. Furthermore, this technique also helps restore soil fertility as the remains of one plant aid the growth of another plant which helps increase the overall yield.

Intercropping refers to a cropping technique in which two or more crops are planted simultaneously in the same piece of land in a specific row pattern in order to increase the productivity of the crops. This technique is followed by the small farmers who are totally dependent on rainfall for better yield and don?t have any other options like tube well, canals etc.

This technique involves specific row patterns such as 1:1, 1:2, meaning one row of the main crop and one or two rows of another crop. The crops with different nutrients requirement are planted together in this technique to ensure optimum utilization of the nutrients and nutrients of the soil are not overused. It also helps prevent the spreads of plant pests and diseases to the plants.
