Open in App
Solution

The following are some reasons how multiple cropping is better than the modern farming methods:

  • More than one crop on a field which is not possible in modern farming method where mostly one crop is grown in the field.
  • If one crop damaged then it has the chances that the another crop will not damaged. However in modern farming method if the crops get spoiled due to some natural calamity there is no other crop that can earn revenue for the farmers.
  • Multiple cropping enables the fertility of the soil.
  • It also prevent soil erosion.In modern farming method after the harvest season the land lies vacant and thus there are chances of erosion.
  • Moreover, multiple cropping is not as expensive as there is no high investments in fertilizers, and HYV seeds.
