The correct Answer is:
To determine which practices are examples of an integrated cultivation system, let's analyze each option step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Integrated Cultivation System**: - An integrated cultivation system involves the simultaneous cultivation of crops and the rearing of animals. This method is often referred to as mixed farming or mixed cropping, where both plants and animals are grown together to maximize the use of land and resources. 2. **Analyzing Option (i): Breeding livestock on oil palm plantations**: - This practice involves raising animals (livestock) alongside oil palm crops. Since both crops and animals are being cultivated together, this is an example of an integrated cultivation system. 3. **Analyzing Option (ii): Breeding small fish in paddy fields**: - In this scenario, small fish are bred in paddy fields, which are flooded during the rainy season. This practice also combines the cultivation of crops (rice) with the rearing of fish, making it another example of an integrated cultivation system. 4. **Analyzing Option (iii): Planting many types of crops in a small area**: - This practice is known as mixed cropping, where different types of crops are planted together in the same area. However, it does not involve the rearing of animals, which is a key component of an integrated cultivation system. Therefore, this option does not qualify as an integrated cultivation system. 5. **Conclusion**: - Based on the analysis, the practices that are examples of an integrated cultivation system are: - (i) Breeding livestock on oil palm plantations - (ii) Breeding small fish in paddy fields - Thus, the correct answer is options (i) and (ii). ### Final Answer: The practices that are examples of an integrated cultivation system are (i) and (ii). ---
