      As others have said, a monoculture will drain those specific nutrients.

      Beans are kinda special being a nitrogen fixer. Lot of plants will drain nitrogen so we fertilize as supplement.

      Plant beans, squash, and corn together and you won’t need to rotate your fields and the plants will form a sort of symbiosis working together.

        Plants compete between them for resources, sorry but its idealistic nonsense to claim that they work together.

      She is playing the part of the dumb antagonist saying Jeff is stupid for rotating his crops.

      Somehow the dumb antagonist is 5000 years old. Humanity can be dumb lol.
