Inter cropping is the practice of growing two or more crops simultaneously in the same field, often in a definite row pattern. This differs from crop rotation, where different crops are grown sequentially in the same field over different seasons or years.<\/section>\n
Inter cropping aims to maximize yield per unit area by making use of resources that would otherwise not be utilized by a single crop, and can also help in pest and disease management.<\/section>\n
Examples of inter cropping include growing rows of legumes between rows of a cereal crop or planting shorter duration crops alongside longer duration ones. Crop rotation helps in maintaining soil fertility and breaking pest cycles. Alternate cropping is not a standard agricultural term. Kharif cropping refers to the monsoon season cropping cycle in the Indian subcontinent.<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
