Agricultural Diversification

Agricultural diversification is the process where farmers grow a variety of crops or raise different types of livestock instead of relying on just one. This approach reduces risk, as farmers are less vulnerable to market fluctuations, pests, or bad weather affecting a single crop. It also helps improve income stability, promotes sustainable land use, and conserves resources. By diversifying, farmers can better meet consumer demand for different products, enhance soil health, and generate multiple streams of revenue, contributing to more resilient and sustainable agricultural systems.
