Summary

In the context of climate change, increases in extreme weather have caused a series of problems, severely reduced crop yield, and caused a loss of agricultural cultivation. In addition, because of the high economic benefits, continuous cropping has become more popular but it leads to higher land-use intensity in production systems, aggravating the problems of extreme climate and seriously influencing China’s agricultural production and ecological environment. From this, the importance of improvements to cropping systems’ resilience to climate change is now much clearer than before. Crop rotation is an important tool for improving the climate resilience of the agricultural production system and effectively solving the shortcomings of the current continuous crop methodology. Crop rotation is
