4 field crop rotation is better than 3 year crop rotation because it could get the job done faster
When turnips are clover were, planted the soil was replenished. So rather than letting a field lay follow, farmers could periodically replace wheat ans barley crops with turnips and clover.
Yes, the Mayans practiced crop rotation by growing crops in different fields each season to maintain soil fertility and productivity. They understood the importance of shifting cultivation to maintain sustainable farming practices in their agricultural systems.

If there is any effect at all, it would need to be a very tiny one. The only way that the Earth's rotation might affect the Sun would be in the way the Earth's rotation generates Earth's magnetic field. Our magnetic field affects the way that coronal mass ejections, huge bubbles of ionized gas from the Sun, behave when they get close. But the Sun has a magnetic field of its own, much stronger than the Earth's field, and it is unlikely that the Earth's magnetic field would affect the Sun or the Sun's magnetic field in more than a minuscule fashion.
Yes there is no doubt about it.
The primary disadvantage of crop rotation is that it requires increased expertise, equipment, and differing management practices. Nutrient management programs have to be altered due to differing crop requirements. Weed control practices must be altered also. However, in general, advantages of crop rotation typically outweigh the disadvantages.
The mass production of corn without crop rotation has been disastrous from both the soil, its nutients and its inhabitants. Only the other hand if corn is used in crop rotation with other plants than it will be neither harmful or beneficial. However, corn plant residue (the part left behind after the farmer harvests) can improve both fertility and soil tilth (the structure of the soil) by adding organic matter back to the soil. Combined with good rotation practices, most farmers find corn to be a very beneficial crop.
It is when one species of crop is rotated with a different species of crop every year. For instance, a field that was planted with canola one year is planted with wheat another year. That same field may be sown into hay for a few years before being turned back to crop. This is so that the nutrients in the soil are not "mined" out of the soil to the point where crops cannot be grown anymore. Different crops have different nutrient needs than others. For instance, legume/oilseed crops like canola and peas fix nitrogen and put nitrogen back into the soil, whereas cereal crops like wheat or corn use it up.
The three field system was neither fair nor corrupt. It was not something that can be evaluated in terms of morality or ethics. The three field system was a system for crop rotation under which one third of the land was planted in a spring planting, one third was planted with different crops for in a fall planting, and one third was left fallow. It was more efficient than the previous two field system. It supported more people with the same land use. But it had no inherent fairness or corruption associated with it.
yes because they have the best player in baseball that is kemp and also have a great rotation.
That greatly depends on which field you are talented in.
Crop rotation is, say, when one year a farmer plants corn in Plot A, watermelon in Plot B, and beans in Plot C, but the next year he plants corn in Plot B, watermelon in Plot C, and beans in Plot A. Different plants require different nutrients from the soil. If corn is planted in Plot A year after year, it takes the same nutrients out of the soil, so eventually the nutrients the corn needs to grow are no longer present in Plot A, eventually yielding a bad harvest. However, by planting beans in Plot A, the soil is given time to restore the corn's favored nutrients while letting the beans take whatever the corn didn't the year before. As a result, the crops had better yields because they were getting everything they needed to grow.
