Solution
The correct option is B Weedicides A seedling bed is a piece of land in which seed plantation is done. This technique is used to maximize seed germination and not to control weeds.
Weedicides are chemicals used to destroy weeds.
Intercropping is the cultivation of two or more crops on the same field simultaneously in a row pattern. When different crops are planted in the same field same insect pests and plant pathogen cannot harm both crops.
Crop rotation is a pattern of growing different types of crops in the same area. This method helps in the replenishment of nutrients by the regular succession over the same field and enhances the health of crops. Hence it minimizes the amount of pest and increases crop production.
