The "rotation" means not planting the same crop in the same ground year after year.
With crop rotation a crop such as potatoes is planted the first year, then the next year beans, then the next year wheat.
After the wheat the ground is left fallow (just grass and animal grazing) for a year then you start again with potatoes.
The advantage is that crop pest do not build up and the ground is naturally "cleaned" by the potatoes and "fertilized" by the beans and the fallow year.
This protects the soil and gives good crop yields without the need to apply artificial fertilizers.
The fastest rotating planet is Jupiter.
no, it's the Earth that is constantly rotating around the Sun
Thomas Edwards, was a pilot who invented the rotating airport light. It was in his funeral notice. He also was a NASA engineer. Ok, we have dispute my husband says he invented the rotating light for the planes.
We believe that stars form at the CENTERS of rotating interstellar gas clouds.
Nothing will happen because of the gravity
Rotating your crops maintains the soil and doesn't deplete it of nutriments needed to grow each different crop...

The Caddo practiced crop rotation to maintain soil fertility and maximize crop yields. By rotating their crops, they helped prevent soil depletion and increased the sustainability of their agricultural practices.
Yes, extremely. When plants are planted that drain the soil of nutrients, rotating the field with a plant such as peas or peanuts, can help restore the soil.
well, by rotating the fields, the farmers give the soil a chance to naturally restore nitrogen and other nutrients.
The growing of cotton as a cash crop took a toll on the health of the soil, rendering it impossible to grow other crops. By rotating the crops to different fields, the negative impact on the soil was nullified and promoted a high yield of cotton.
Cotton plants require masive amounts of nutrients and they suck all the nutrients from the soil, what has been done to keep the soil useful is cotton farmers have begun crop rotating.
Crop rotation is important because certain crops deplete nutrients from the soil and overplanting these crops can make the soil unable to support future crops. By rotating crops, this allows nutrients to replenish in the soil naturally, minimizing the need for artificial fertilizers.
Crop rotation is the practice of growing different types of crops on the same plot of land in sequential seasons. Farmers in the Midwest practice crop rotation to maintain soil fertility, prevent pests and diseases, and improve crop yields. Different crops have different nutrient needs and growth patterns, and rotating crops helps to balance the soil ecosystem and reduce reliance on chemical fertilizers and pesticides.
Proper plowing helps prevent soil erosion, and rotating crops helps keep the soil from becoming depleted in specific nutrients.

Crop rotation helped farmers improve soil fertility, control diseases, pests, and weeds, and increase crop yields. By rotating different crops on the same land throughout the seasons, farmers could prevent soil depletion and maintain a healthy ecosystem, contributing to sustainable agricultural practices.
