Solution
The correct option is D Micronutrients
Micronutrients play an important role in increasing sugarcane yield and producing quality crops. The key micronutrients taken up in greatest quantities are iron and manganese. They ensure stress free growth, improving photosynthetic performance and sugarcane yield. Boron and zinc are needed in lower quantities and have a specific role to play in the growth of new plant tissues.
