Question

1. which method promotes sustainable land use by integrating various ecosystems?

a. agroforestry combining trees and crops
b. soil depletion from overuse
c. urban farming in small plots
d. monoculture of single crop fields

Explanation:

To determine the correct answer, we analyze each option:

• Option a: Agroforestry combines trees and crops, integrating different ecosystems (tree - based and crop - based) to promote sustainable land use (e.g., better soil health, biodiversity).
• Option b: Soil depletion from overuse is unsustainable, not a method to promote sustainability.
• Option c: Urban farming in small plots focuses on urban areas and small - scale cultivation, not ecosystem integration for sustainable land use in a broad sense.
• Option d: Monoculture (single - crop fields) reduces biodiversity and is less sustainable, not promoting ecosystem integration.

Answer:

a. Agroforestry combining trees and crops
