Answer: Companion planting

The benefits of companion planting are several; one is that one plant provides protection (shade or against insects) for the other/s; they allow maximum use of space; and they can also reinvest the soil with nutrients removed by other plants. In the case of the three sisters the plants are positioned in such a way that the corn provides support for the beans as they climb up the corn stalks, and the squash leave provide shade for the soil, aiding in water retention.

The beans add nitrogen to the soil. Growing the plants together also provided a balanced diet for the growers.
