Solution

The unwanted plants present in a crop field are called weeds

The unwanted plants (or wild plants) which grow along with a cultivated crop are called weeds.

The growth of weeds in the fields is harmful because they consume a lot of fertilizer, water, sunlight and space, meant for the crop plants and reduce the crop yield, and lower the quality of food grains.
