Tap root system is deep rooted hence this system is capable of taking nutrients and moisture from deeper layers of soil and it provides a better anchorage to taller plants. The disadvantage of this system is that it remains away from the top soil,

Fibrous root system is more efficient for absorption of water and nutrients from the top soil as it is largely confined to the more fertile part of the soil. The disadvantage of this system is that it can not support taller plants and also not able to absorb water from water table of earth.
