What is the practice of growing two or more crops in the same field in a given year?
crop rotation
How does growing the same crops in the same fields year after year?
used up all the nutrients in the soil
What do you mean by multiple cropping?
Multiple cropping refers to the agricultural practice of growing two or more crops in the same field during a single growing season. This method maximizes land use, improves soil fertility, and increases overall agricultural productivity. It can involve different cropping systems, such as intercropping (growing different crops together) or sequential cropping (growing different crops in succession). By efficiently utilizing resources, multiple cropping can enhance food security and farmer income.
How are crops selected for crop rotation?
the system of growing a sequence of different crops on the same ground so as to maintain or increase its fertility
When a farmer changes the crops each year in the same field that is called?
Multiple cropping is the agricultural practice of growing two or more crops in the same field during the same growing season. This type of polyculture can be categorized into two ways: double-cropping, where the second crop is planted after the first is harvested; and relay cropping, when the second crop is planted before the first has been harvested.
Why do post harvest losses vary for different crops?
Because different crops behave differently in the same or different growing/climatic conditions. Losses for oilseed crops are different than cereal crops, for instance.
Are irrigation and farming the same thing?
No.* Farming is the growing of plants or crops. * Irigation is delivering water to an area.
How did crop rotation increase crop yield?
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.
How did crop rotation increased crop production?
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.

Is cultivation the same as fallowing?
No. Cultivation means the planting, care, and growing of crops. Fallowing means NOT planting a crop.
Was crop rotation increase food production and crop yield?
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.
