Solution

The correct option is B alternately
Crop rotation is the practice of growing a series of dissimilar types of crops alternately in the same area in sequential seasons for various benefits such as to avoid the buildup of pathogens and pests that often occurs when one species is continuously cropped.
Crop rotation also seeks to balance the fertility demands of various crops to avoid excessive depletion of soil nutrients.
