Question

State True or False. Correct the false statements.

Using good quality seed is the only criterion to get a high yield.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

High yield:

1. Apart from good quality seeds one also needs to follow proper agricultural practices.
2. A high yield is also dependent on the agricultural conditions including the quality of the crops, abiotic factors, as well as the pollution status of the field.
3. Some good agricultural practices that result in a high yield include crop rotation, terrace farming, legume farming, etc. since they do not deplete the soil of its nutrients and are resistant to soil erosion.
4. Planting trees around the crops also results in a high yield as it holds the soil particles, prevents erosion of soil, and thereby allows a healthy harvest.

Final answer:The given statement is false.
