Question

What are weeds? Why should they be removed?

Open in App
Solution

The unwanted plants that grow in the fields along with crop plants are known as weeds.
They should be removed because they compete with the crop plants for space, light, minerals and nutrients, thereby increasing the competition for these crops. Presence of weeds leads to a drop in yield.
