Which is a common practice for farmers to yield higher crop production? A) Overplowing mixes the nutrients in the soil
B) consistently plant the same crop every year
C) allow later-successional growth to replace nutrients
D) keep the area planted with early-successional species

NOT C

D) keep the area planted with early-successional species.

Explanation: Early successional species grow fast and spread their seeds rapidly and widely. This could help to bring in a potentially high crop yield.

It likely is not A because overplowing leaves the soil susceptible to erosion and damages the physical infrastructure.

B should not be the answer because consistently planting the same crop year-round can deplete the nutrient resource said crop relies on. It’s why crop-rotating is a thing now.

I hope this helps :(((
