Solution

The correct option is A Inter cropping
A cropping pattern where two different crop plants are planted in alternate rows in a definite row pattern is called intercropping. The advantages of such a pattern are that we get a variety of crops from the same land. So even if one crop fails, the others make up for it. It saves the farmer a lot of effort and time as harvesting both the crops simultaneously is easier.
