Strip farming is a similar practice to intercropping, where areas of one crop are separated from each other with strips of another crop, the rationale being that the two different crops are unlikely to share the same pathogens, thus reducing the rate of spread. The main disadvantage of strip farming is the fact that it is relatively labour intensive. 5, record 1, English, - strip%20cropping
