Plough, Hoe, and Cultivator are the main tools used for breaking the soil to the size of grains to prepare it for sowing seeds, which helps in achieving a better yield. These tools are specifically designed for soil preparation by either cutting, lifting, turning over, or mixing the soil.

Question 7

Growing different crops alternately on the same land is technically called
A)Crop Alternation
B)Crop Rotation
C)Crop Revolution
