Crop rotation provides many different benefits. I have listed a few below.

➜ Crop rotation allows soil microbes to have different food sources and this leads to healthier soil.

➜ Crop rotation promotes plants’ resistance to stressors and boosts their productivity leading to larger yields and profits.

➜ Crop rotation interrupts plausible pests and diseases, leading to less use of pesticides.

➜ Crop rotation can be better for the environment because farmers are using pesticides, less waterusage, leads to healthier soil, and more.

➜ More not listed here.
