Inter-cropping and crop rotation both play an important role in increasing the yield of crops. Inter-cropping helps in preventing pests and diseases to spread throughout the field. It also increases soil fertility, whereas crop rotation prevents soil depletion, increases soil fertility, and reduces soil erosion. Both these methods reduce the need for fertilizers. It also helps in controlling weeds and controls the growth of pathogens and pests in crops.

What are the advantagers of inter-cropping and crop rotation?
The advantages of inter-cropping and crop rotation include allowing the soil adequate time to dissolve nutrients for plants to take up.

What are the types of crop rotation?
One year rotation (1. Maize-Mustard 2.Rice-Wheat) Two year rotation (1.Maize-Mustard-sugarcane-Methi 2.Maize-Potato-Sugarcane-Peas) Three year rotation (1.Rice-Wheat-Moong-Mustard-sugarcane-Berseem 2. Cotton-Oat-Sugarcane-Peas-Maize-Wheat)
What are the different cropping patterns?
Some common cropping patterns include monoculture (growing a single crop on the same land each year), crop rotation (alternating different crops in a sequence), intercropping (growing two or more crops together simultaneously), and agroforestry (integrating trees and shrubs with crops). Each pattern has its own benefits and challenges in terms of soil health, pest control, and crop productivity.
Is crop rotation still necessary when strip cropping is practiced?
Not necessary, perhaps, but still advisable.
How can you increase the yield of crops as population is increasing but space is less?
scientific management practices should be undertaen to obtain high yield from farms. some examples of such practices are- 1) mixed cropping 2) inter cropping 3) crop rotation 4) multiple cropping 5) mixed farming the major group of activities for improving crop yield can be classified as- a) crop variety improvement b) crop production improveent c) crop protection management hope, i answered the question for more information contact me on ani_178@ yahoo.com( i am a student of 15 years)
How soil is preventing?
by Terracing, Contour Plowing/Farming,Strip Cropping,Crop Rotation and Planting trees/Reforestation
What is the practice of growing two or more crops in the same field in a given year?
crop rotation
What advantages of crop rotation?
Crop rotation allows the soil to recover. Proper crop rotation will replace nutrients that are consumed by the previous crop. Planting the same crop year after year will deplete certain nutrients and make the soil unproductive.
Differences between monocropping and continuous cropping?
Monoculture is the practice of producing or growing crops singly over an area of land, however,monocropping is growing the same crop year after year without crop rotation
What does cropping intensity means?
The number of years of cropping multiplied by 100, and divided by the number of years of the rotation. It is expressed as 'R', e.g., 3 years crop, 7 years fallow = 10 year rotation. Thus R = (3x100)/10 = 30
