Crop diversification means growing a variety of crops in an area, not just one. If one crop fails this year, the area can still survive. The growth and spread of predators is limited.
Crop rotation means not growing the same crop in the same place year after year, depleting the soil of the nutrients needed to grow that crop. It should also include letting the ground lie fallow some years to let it recover, or growing crops for the purpose of replenishing soil nutrients.

As far as I know it's a system used by farmers and it's usually because of pressure put on by a government because of mass overproduction. If there is a farmer who has been growing wheat all his life and all of a sudden there is too much of this crop and no market to buy it then the farmer has to grow another crop, say barley. this is crop diversification.
