	Crop rotation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Crop rotation is the practice of growing a series of dissimilar types of crops in the same space in sequential seasons to avoid the buildup of pathogens and pests that often occurs when one species is continuously cropped.
		A crop that leaches the soil of one kind of nutrient is followed during the next growing season by a dissimilar crop that returns that nutrient to the soil or draws a different ratio of nutrients, for example, rices followed by cottons.
		From the end of the Middle Ages until the 20th century, the three-year rotation was practiced by farmers in Europe with a rotation: rye or winter wheat, followed by spring oats or barley, then letting the soil rest (fallow) during the third stage.

		In some cases, fallow is not successful in practice because the importance of weeds as hosts is not taken seriously.
		Efforts to reduce populations of stem and bulb nematode on alfalfa, garlic, and daffodils, and root-knot nematode on potatoes have been confounded by the presence of "volunteers" surviving around the edges of fields or as "weeds" within the field.
		The usefulness of fallow is limited at the present time because of our inability to predict when it would be economically beneficial for growers to fallow ground to reduce nematode populations rather than to plant a susceptible crop.
