Solution

The correct option is C It balances soil composition.
Mixed cropping has numerous benefits, but the one that is exclusive to the nourishment of soil is balancing the soil composition. Multiple crops are planted in such a way that they do not strip the soil of the innate nutrients. Mixed cropping also reduces pest activity.
