In the context of Indigenous agriculture, particularly among some Native American tribes, the combination of maize (corn), beans, and squash is often referred to as the "Three Sisters." This agricultural technique is known for its complementary planting, where each plant supports the others: corn provides a structure for the beans to climb, beans fix nitrogen in the soil, and squash spreads over the ground to prevent weeds and retain moisture. This symbiotic relationship among the three crops has been a traditional method of farming for centuries, promoting biodiversity and sustainability.
