Question

Excessive use of chemical fertilisers improve the texture and fertility of the soil.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

The topmost layer of the soil is rich in nutrients and minerals which help in the growth of crops. Over time, excessive cultivation depletes the fertility of the soil. So, chemical fertilisers are used to replenish these nutrients and minerals.

However, excessive use of these chemical fertilisers creates an imbalance of nutrients in the soil which causes the soil to lose its fertility.
