Question

In agricultural practices, higher input gives a higher yield. Discuss how?

Answer 1

Higher input gives a higher yield because:

1. The farmer's financial income decides on how many crops they are going to grow.
2. It allows the farmers to take up different farming practices and technologies.
3. Hence, if farmers put in more crops of good quality then we can get a higher yield based on improved farming techniques and modern technology.
4. The higher yield can be achieved by the latest agricultural machines and implements, nutrient supply and continuous research, etc.
5. But these newer technologies require more cost.
6. Hence, the cropping system and production output are dependent on a farmer's cost capacity.
