class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><strong>Cropping Pattern<\/strong> is the systematic arrangement and rotation of <strong>crops<\/strong> over a specific area of land at different points in time.<\/p>\n<p>If there is a change in the cropping pattern, it will lead to:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The proportion of land will change under different crops.<\/li>\n<li>Change in the sequence of space and time of Crops.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In India, there are various factors on which the cropping pattern depends. These factors are- rainfall, temperature, climate, technology, and soil type. Different cropping patterns are practiced to obtain the maximum yield.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Different_Types_of_Cropping_Pattern\"><\/span>Different Types of Cropping Pattern<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The different types of cropping patterns are discussed below:<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Monocropping\"><\/span>Monocropping<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Soil fertility is reduced in monocropping. It destroys the structure of the soil. For upgrading the production, chemical fertilizers are required. There&#8217;s a chance of spreading pests and diseases by this practice.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Mixed_Cropping\"><\/span>Mixed Cropping<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Mixed Cropping is the practice in which two crops are grown on the same land simultaneously. Example: If wheat and gram are grown on the same land at the same time, this cropping pattern is known as mixed cropping.<\/p>\n<p>Maturation time and water requirements of crops that are grown together should be different. There should be one tall and one dwarf crop. The Nutrient requirement of one crop should be less as compared to another crop. Roots of one crop should be deep and of another should be shallow. Mixed cropping will be successful only if all these criteria are followed.<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Advantages_of_Mixed_Cropping\"><\/span>Advantages of Mixed Cropping<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Increase in crop yield.<\/li>\n<li>Minimization of pest infestation.<\/li>\n<li>The risk of crop failure is to be decreased.<\/li>\n<li>Proper utilization of soil.<\/li>\n<li>Two crops can be grown together.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Intercropping\"><\/span>Intercropping<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>When two crops are grown together on the same field at the same time but in a definite row pattern, the practice is known as Intercropping. There will be one row of the main crop and the other three rows will be of intercrops.<\/p>\n<p><strong>There are different types of intercropping:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Row Intercropping: <\/b>The arrangement of component crops in alternate rows is known as row intercropping. Land space is utilized in this cropping pattern. During the early stage of the main crop, this cropping pattern also helps in the suppression of weeds.<\/li>\n<li><b>Strip Intercropping: <\/b>In strip cropping, two or more crops are grown in wide strips. In this crop pattern, the two crops can be managed separately.<\/li>\n<li><b>Relay Intercropping: <\/b>In this type of cropping pattern, the second crop is planted when the first crop has flowered but not harvested. Example: Rice- Cauliflower &#8211; Onion- Summer gourds.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Advantages of Intercropping<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Control of pests and diseases.<\/li>\n<li>Resources are utilized.<\/li>\n<li>Time and space are saved by growing more than one crop.<\/li>\n<li>Nutrients present in the soil are maximum utilized.<\/li>\n<li>The fertility of the soil is maintained.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Some examples of Intercropping are- maize and soybean, bajra and lobea.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Cropping_Pattern_in_India\"><\/span>Cropping Pattern in India<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>There is a multitude of cropping pattern in India.<\/p>\n<div class=\"table-responsive\">\n<table class=\"table table-bordered table-striped\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"5\">\n<tbody>\n<tr style=\"background-color: #89cff0; color: black;\">\n<td><b>Cropping Pattern <\/b><\/td>\n<td><b>State <\/b><\/td>\n<td><b>Crops Grown <\/b><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Mixed cropping<\/td>\n<td>Punjab and Haryana, Maharashtra, Karnataka<\/td>\n<td>Wheat+mustard, cotton+soyabean, maize+groundnut<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Crop rotation<\/td>\n<td>Punjab and Haryana, Andhra Pradesh and Telangana, Tamil Nadu<\/td>\n<td>Rice\/wheat+maize+sugarcane, rice+red gram+ rice+cotton+red gram<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Intercropping<\/td>\n<td>Maharashtra and Gujarat, Punjab and Haryana, Bihar and Jharkhand<\/td>\n<td>Cotton+groundnut, cotton+green gram, paddy+black gram<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Multiple cropping<\/td>\n<td>Punjab and Haryana, West Bengal, Karnataka<\/td>\n<td>Wheat+rice, Aman paddy+jute, Ragi+cowpea<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Crop_Rotation\"><\/span>Crop Rotation<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>On the same land, different crops are grown in pre-planned succession.
