Detailed Solution

The given statement is false.
There are two methods by which production can be increased—multiple cropping and modern farming techniques such as HYV seeds, irrigation systems, fertilisers etc. Multiple cropping is the most common method through which farmers increase their production. Farmers growing more than one crop on a piece of land in a year is called multiple farming. They engaged themselves in farming throughout the year using this multiple cropping method. For example, apart from the two main crops, farmers of Palampur grow potatoes as the third crop. Hence the correct statement would be, Multiple cropping is growing more than one crop on a piece of land during a year.
