What is difference between crop harvest and crop produce?
A crop harvest is also referred to as crop yield which is a measurement of how much is produced per area. Crop produce is the amount of crops that are yielded as a whole.
What is the study of crop production called?
The study of crop production is called agronomy. Agronomy involves understanding plant genetics, soil management, crop rotation, and other factors that affect crop growth and yield.
How does pesticides increase the crop yield?
Pesticides increase crop yield by controlling pests that can damage crops. By reducing pest damage, pesticides help plants grow healthier and produce a higher yield. This leads to more efficient crop production and better overall harvests.
Explain any one method of crop production which ensures high yield?
we can increase the yield in crop production by hybridization . For e.g.: take a plant which is disease free but poor in yield and take another which gives higher yield but is disease prone . by cross breeding them through interverialtale hybridization will give an offspring which is superior to its parents and gives higher yield and disease resistant .

Agronomy is the study of what?
Agronomy is the study of soil management and crop production to increase agricultural productivity and sustainability. It focuses on understanding the interactions between plants, soil, and environment to improve crop yield and quality.
What is base period of crop?
The base period of a crop refers to a specific time frame in which the crop is grown and harvested. It is used for determining factors such as crop insurance coverage, yield calculations, and historical production data analysis. The base period varies depending on the crop and location.

Is the yield of beetroots affected by weeds?
The yield of ANY crop is affected by weeds. While you can't always see the effects, the weeds are stealing crop nutrients and water from the crop.
How do biotic and abiotic factors affect crop production?
A variety of biotic factors such as pests, nematodes, diseases, etc. can reduce the net crop production. A pest causes damage to agriculture by feeding on crops. For example, the boll weevil is a pest on cotton. It attacks the cotton crop, thereby reducing its yield. Weeds also reduce crop productivity by competing with the main crop for nutrients, light, and space. Similarly, abiotic factors such as salinity, temperature, etc. affect the net crop production. Some natural calamities such as droughts and floods are unpredictable. Their occurrence has a great impact on crops sometimes, destroying the entire crop.
What was surplus food used for?
In agriculture sector the production of crop yield that is just sufficient for human consumption has no surplus for free market or as buffer stock. With technological application as inputs for agricultural production the crop yield is beyond the self sufficiency level. Such yield is called surplus food. In common usage , any production of food in excess of the number of people for consumption of the produced food is termed as surplus food.
