Here's how it works:
* Three Fields: The land is divided into three sections.
* Rotation:
* Year 1: Field 1 is planted with a crop (e.g., wheat).
* Year 2: Field 2 is planted with a crop (e.g., barley). Field 1 is left fallow (unused).
* Year 3: Field 3 is planted with a crop (e.g., legumes). Field 2 is left fallow.
This system allows the soil to rest and recover nutrients, reducing the need for fertilizers and preventing soil depletion. It also helps to control pests and diseases by disrupting their life cycles.
