Correct Answer

D

Explanation

Crop rotation is the growing of several crops on different plots or portions on a farmland in a definite order on a yearly basis. Shifting cultivation is the growing of crops on a piece of land for one year or season and the land is left to fallow for some years to restore lost fertility before the land is cultivated again. Option D is an innovation in agricultural practice in order to match food production with population explosion. Burning of farmland destroys soil fertility.
