The two correct answers that represent sustainable farming techniques are:

  1. Planting trees in between rows of crops - This practice, known as agroforestry, promotes biodiversity, improves soil health, and enhances resilience against climate change.

  2. Rotating crops each year - Crop rotation helps maintain soil fertility, reduces pest and disease cycles, and can enhance biodiversity.

The other options (planting a single crop over a large area, limiting agriculture to rural areas, and tilling soil frequently) are not considered sustainable practices.
