If we grow a crop continuously in the same field for many years, it results in to various problems such as 1) deficiency of same types of nutrients and 2) build up of diseases and insect-pest. So crop rotation is used as a system of growing a sequence of different crops on the same ground so as to maintain or increase its fertility.

What is the study of crop production called?

How does pesticides increase the crop yield?

Pesticides increase crop yield by controlling pests that can damage crops. By reducing pest damage, pesticides help plants grow healthier and produce a higher yield. This leads to more efficient crop production and better overall harvests.


What is the difference between crop yield and crop production?

Explain any one method of crop production which ensures high yield?

we can increase the yield in crop production by hybridization . For e.g.: take a plant which is disease free but poor in yield and take another which gives higher yield but is disease prone . by cross breeding them through interverialtale hybridization will give an offspring which is superior to its parents and gives higher yield and disease resistant .


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)


What i the difference between land rotation and crop rotation?

Land rotation refers to the practice of alternating the use of a piece of land between different types of crops or activities over time, such as switching between agricultural production and fallow periods. Crop rotation, on the other hand, specifically involves the systematic planting of different crops in a particular sequence on the same piece of land to improve soil health, prevent pests and diseases, and increase crop yield. In essence, land rotation is a broader concept that encompasses various land uses, while crop rotation is a specific agricultural technique aimed at sustainable farming practices.
