Out of fallowing and crop rotation, which method do you think is better for replenishing the nutrients in soil? Give reason for your answer.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Crop rotation is a better method for replenishing the nutrients in the soil as compared to fallowing because fallowing is a time-consuming method to regain lost nutrients as we need to leave the land free for one or more seasons in fallowing. But in crop rotation, the land regains the lost nutrients by growing different crops in different seasons. This not only helps soil in regaining its lost nutrients, but also is beneficial for the farmer.
