The sustainable farming techniques among the given options are:
1. Rotating crops each year: Crop rotation is a sustainable farming technique that helps in maintaining soil fertility, reducing pest and disease build-up, and enhancing crop yield. It involves systematically growing a sequence of different crops on the same land.
2. Planting trees in between rows of crops: Agroforestry, the practice of integrating trees into agricultural systems, provides multiple benefits such as increased biodiversity, improved soil health, reduced erosion and runoff, and enhanced carbon sequestration.
Therefore, options 1 (Rotating crops each year) and 4 (Planting trees in between rows of crops) are the correct answers.

tilling soil frequently
planting a single crop over a large area
rotating crops each year
