Explanation

To make the Indian agriculture more ecofriendly, we should practice all of the above, except monoculture. Monoculture is the agricultural practice of producing or growing a single crop or plant species over a wide area and for a large number of consecutive years. It is widely used in modern industrial agriculture and its implementation has allowed for large harvests from minimal labour. This extracts nutrients from soil and causes land pollution.
