Solution
The correct option is C Weeding
Weeding
is the process of removing unwanted plants in a crop. Once weedicides are
applied, they contain harmful elements like DDT and many more which can leach
into the soil and cause soil pollution and cause death of beneficial micro
fauna present in the soil. These weedicides can also reach to the aquatic
bodies by runoff water, causing algal blooms and thereby leading to the death
of aquatic fauna.
