Question

Soil gets affected by continuous plantation of crops . Give reason

Answer 1

Dear Student,

Continuous plantation of crops in a field makes the soil poor in certain nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, etc. Plants require nutrients for their proper growth and functioning. When a farmer continues to grow crops one after the other, then all nutrients available in the soil reduce and the crop yield decreases automatically.
That is why it is said that soil gets affected by continuous plantation of crops.
