Question

Which one of the following does not follow monoculture?

Options

• Dairy farming

• Mixed farming

• Plantation agriculture

• Commercial grain farming

Answer 1

Mixed farming

Explanation:

Mixed farming does not follow monoculture because it involves the simultaneous cultivation of multiple crops alongside the rearing of livestock on the same farm. Monoculture refers to growing only a single crop or specialising in a single agricultural output. While dairy farming, plantation agriculture, and commercial grain farming all focus strictly on a single specialised product, mixed farming intentionally combines crop diversification with animal husbandry.
