Nice one Sir. I think another importance of mixed cropping is for pest control. Some of the the pests of one crop can be a predator of another crop. So when they are planted together, the pests rather fight each other for space rather than affect the crops.
As you have said, the plants a farmer needs to plant in the same farm needs to match, that's very important because I remember when we planted cocoyam and water leaf together, the water leaf didn't yield well because the cocoyam served as a cover crop, making sunlight not to perntrate to the water leaf plants thereby hindering photosynthesis.
Thanks for the insight, Sir.
Good morning πππ
