What else can I help you with?
What is techniques can be used to solve the shortage of human resource?
The shortage of resources is a direct correlation of a growing population and a shortage of resources. In response: Technologies have been created to increase energy production, increase crop yield, and decrease the usage of resources.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of genetically modified foods?
One of the disadvantages of the genetically modified foods is that it allows animal products in plants which could raise issues for those with dietary restrictions like the vegans. The advantage of the genetically modified foods is that they can increase the crop yield in a very small acreage.
How does using herbicide tolerant crops increase herbicide use?
Because the crop you are using is tolerant to the herbicide you are using, you can use more before it will damage the crop. Because of this, you use more herbicide to kill the unwanted flora.
How does planting high-yield crop varieties make farming more sustainable?
Planting high-yield crop varieties enhances farming sustainability by increasing productivity on existing agricultural land, which can reduce the need to convert natural ecosystems into farmland. This practice optimizes resource use, as these crops often require less water, fertilizer, and pesticides per unit of output. Additionally, higher yields can improve food security and generate more income for farmers, enabling them to invest in sustainable practices and technologies. Overall, it contributes to more efficient food production systems while minimizing environmental impact.
What 2 inventions lead to increased crop production?
the mechanical reaper and cotton gin were the 2 machines that led to increased crop crop production
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.
What jobs need pesticides?
to destroy plant pests and to increase crop yield
How do pesticides increase the amount of crop produced?
Pesticides help increase crop yield by reducing losses from pests and diseases that can destroy crops. By protecting plants from damage, pesticides help crops remain healthy and produce a higher yield. This results in more produce being available for harvest without significant losses.
How does temperature affect the growth and yield of crops?
When annual temperatures increase sharply above the ideal crop temperature, it can cause a decrease in a crop's yield. Likewise, other factors like an increase in carbon dioxide levels can cause an increase in the growth of crops.
Different ways you can think of that a grower might use to increase crop yield?
Soil testing, Crop Genetics, Seed spacing, Irrigation
What is a crop called where the heredity material has been changed artificially to increase their yield?
Genetically Modified Crops.
Why are foods genetically engineered?
Variety of reasons - drought resistance, pest resistance, increase crop yield to name a few.
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 .
How could increasing the amount of fertilizer in a greenhouse affect a crop yield?
Increasing the amount of fertilizer in a greenhouse can lead to increased crop yield by providing plants with more nutrients to support growth. However, excessive fertilizer can also result in nutrient imbalances, plant stress, and environmental pollution. Careful monitoring and regulation of fertilizer application is essential to optimize crop yield while minimizing negative impacts.
What is the development of highly productive crop strains and the use of modern agriculture techniques to increase yield of food crops?
green r
What is the difference between crop yield and crop production?
yield is per area, production is total (at least according to FAO)
What does yield mean when growing any crop?
Yield is the amount of usable crop per plant, per acre or per 'measurement'.
