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 .
