Question 4 • Pretest

What role did crop rotation play in the Agricultural Revolution?

Answer
A
It allowed farmers to share crops with one another.
B
It introduced new machines to plant and harvest crops.
C
It helped restore nutrients to the soil so crops grew better.
D
It enabled farmers to plant many new types of crops.

Explanation

Crop rotation means growing different crops in a field in a planned sequence instead of planting the same crop there every year. Some crops, such as legumes, help replenish nutrients in the soil, while rotating crops also reduces soil exhaustion. This helped crops grow better, so the correct choice is “It helped restore nutrients to the soil so crops grew better.”
