Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Diversification in the context of agriculture refers to the practice of growing a variety of different crops rather than specializing in one single crop. This method reduces risk and increases resilience by ensuring that the farm’s income is not dependent on the success or failure of a single crop. Thus, the correct term is "diversification of crops."
