Monoculture derived from the Greek word “μόνος / mónos” meaning  “alone, only, sole, single” and “Culture” borrowed from latin word “cultÅ«ra / cult / cultus” means 'cultivation', which refers to set of work performed on land. Monoculture Farming is simply a practice of planting one type of crop or raising one type of animal at a time on specific farmland. This system has pros and cons to be considered. Monoculture farming offers advantages such as simplified management, increased efficiency in planting, harvesting, and pest control, and higher yields due to optimized conditions for a single crop. Additionally, it can facilitate mechanization and streamline the use of agricultural inputs like fertilizers and irrigation systems. However, monoculture farming also comes with cons such as increased vulnerability to pests, diseases, and soil degradation, as well as reduced biodiversity and ecosystem resilience.

Growing one crop can improve an ability to determine possible problem and ease to address such thing. Expertise in specific crop helps to increase profits and reduce the production costs as no need to spend for hiring practitioners in this kinds of field.
