The chief characteristic of “mixed farming” is rearing of animals and cultivation of crops together. So, the correct option is (c).
This method of mixed farming is practised mostly in Asian countries like India, China, and Indonesia etc.
This type of farming creates a sustainable environment in which the dug of the live stock is used as a manure for the farming industry and also the agricultural weeds can be used as a feed for the livestock. They grow with mutually benefitting each other.
