Question
Explain any one method of crop production which ensures high yield.
Answer
Method: Inter-cropping
It is a method of growing two or more crops simultaneously on the same field in a definite pattern (e.g., a few rows of soybean alternating with a few rows of maize).
How it ensures high yield:
It ensures maximum utilization of nutrients and sunlight.
It prevents pests and diseases from spreading to all plants of one crop.
This results in better returns (high yield) from both crops.
