Multiple cropping (or mixed cropping), now being studied by scientists, has been used by farmers for centuries. Multiple cropping systems were the first types of organized agriculture. This book (by several authors) explores present systems and the potential of complex, intensive cropping systems fo...

The methods of data analysis are based on the Multivariate probit and the Ordered probit models. The SAPs considered include improved seeds, inorganic fertilizer, mixed-cropping techniques, and organic manure. The empirical results show that farmers’ adoption of different SAPs and their intensity of...
