HEY MATE HERE IS YOUR ANSWER

  • Monoculture is the agricultural practice of producing or growing a single crop, plant, or livestock species, variety, or breed in a field or farming system at a time. Polyculture, where more than one crop is grown in the same space at the same time, is the alternative to monoculture.Monoculture is widely used in both industrial farming and organic farming and has allowed increased efficiency in planting and harvest.
  • Continuous monoculture, or monocropping, where the same species is grown year after year, can lead to the quicker buildup of pests and diseases, and then rapid spread where a uniform crop is susceptible to a pathogen. Some examples of Monocultures aggressive with the environment are: Monoculture of African Palm Oil, Monoculture of Sugar Cane,Monocultures of Pines,Monoculture of Soybean. The practice has been criticized for its environmental effects and for putting the food supply chain at risk. Diversity can be added both in time, as with a crop rotation or sequence, or in space, with a polyculture.
  • Oligoculture has been suggested to describe a crop rotation of just a few crops, as is practiced by several regions of the world.
  • The term monoculture is frequently applied for other uses to describe any group dominated by a single variety, e.g. social monoculturalism, or in the field of musicology to describe the dominance of the American and British music-industries in Western pop music, or in the field of computer science to describe a group of computers all running identical software

Hey dude,

Monoculture: The cultivation of a single crop in a given area.

How is MonoCulture practiced in India?

Farming Systems in India are strategically utilized, according to the locations where they are most suitable. Regions throughout India differ in types of farming they use; some are based on horticulture, ley farming, agroforestry, and many more.

Due to India's geographical location, certain parts experience different climates, thus affecting each region's agricultural productivity differently. India's agriculture has an extensive background which goes back to at least 10 thousand years.

Currently the country holds the second position in agricultural production in the world. In 2007, agriculture and other industries made up more than 16% of India's GDP.
