Solution

The correct option is B

Fertilizer


Food security depends upon both, the availability of food and access to it. Just over production does not guarantee food security. People should have money to buy food for themselves. Mixed farming involves the growth of multiple plants simultaneously on the same field. This increases the quality of soil if leguminous plants are grown along with crops. Fertilizers, like urea, are commercially produced plant nutrients.
