Dual crop farming or multiple cropping can be either mixed cropping or intercropping.

Mixed cropping refers to raising two or more types of crops in the same area at the same time. This increases the probability that at least one type of crop will survive even if the entire area experiences adverse conditions such as drought.
Intercropping is similar, but with the addition of planting seeds in a specific pattern or sequence in the field. This allows farmers to maximize yield or productivity and the space available.

Dual crop farming is very popular among farmers because it optimizes the use of equipment, soil, water, and farming supplies; it also maximizes the production of a small farm all year round.
Farmers like that it reduces the risk of total loss from calamities, drought, pests, and diseases. Some good examples of multiple cropping are growing strawberries and watermelons in Florida or wheat and soybeans in addition to corn and canola in the Carolinas.

Fish farming is an ideal business idea for investors with available land, and it doesn’t always require a large body of water. You can start a fish farm either by creating fish ponds or investing in fish tanks; it’s a highly scalable business idea. Once you have the proper knowledge of fish raising, you will be able to decide the type of fish to raise. According to FinModelsLab, a well-run fish farm can produce a return on investment (ROI) of 15% to 40% annually, with many fish farmers achieving a full return on their investment within three to five years.
Fish such as tilapia, cod, trout, and catfish are popular because they are easy to raise and in high demand. Small-scale farms are the usual suppliers of fish in their local supermarkets and restaurants.
Other popular varieties of commercially-raised fish include:

Yellow Perch
Eel
Grass Carp
Tuna
Salmon

Not all fish are raised for food. Goldfish and koi are popular fish to farm as well. For non-food fish, focus on cultivating premium species that will fetch a higher price when you sell. Whether you are raising fish for food or not, adopting sustainable farming practices will be better for both your business branding and your long-term operational costs.
The decision as to which fish you want to raise will ultimately rely on your skill, financial capacity, market demand, and agro-climatic condition. This refers to the normal soil types, rainfall, temperature, and water availability that affect the type of vegetation in the area.
