Solution

The correct option is A True
Cereal crops utilise more nutrients. Hence, a pulse crop is grown between two cereal crops, to compensate for the loss of nutrients.
Pulses are leguminous plants which are capable of restoring soil fertility by means of their symbiotic root nodules. This method of cultivating more than one crop in the same field is termed as mixed cropping.
