  • Question 2

    Sugarcane crop grows well in the areas with a rainfall of  ______________.
    Solution
    1. A total rainfall between 110 and 150 cm is adequately provided the distribution is right, abundant in the months of vegetative growth followed by a dry period for ripening.
    2. During the active growth period, rainfall encourages rapid cane growth, cane elongation, and internode formation.
    3. But during the ripening period, high rainfall is not desirable because it leads to poor juice quality, encourages vegetative growth, the formation of water shoots and increase in the tissue moisture. It also hampers harvesting and transport operations. 
    4. This seems to be the case in regions of South America, South East Asia and some parts of Southern India.

  • Question 6
    1 / -0
    The important crop that helps to restore soil fertility by nitrogen fixation and is also a good source of protein is _________.
    Solution

    Nitrogen is the most essential nutrient for plant. Pulses can utilize nitrogen present in the soil by symbiotic relation with nitrogen fixing bacteria that live inside roots of the plants.

    Pulses also improve fertility of soil and hence are grown as rotation crops in between the different crops.

  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    Rice cultivation requires ________.
    Solution
     It is the staple food crop of a majority of the people in India. Our country is the second largest producer of rice in the world after China. It is a kharif crop which requires high temperature, (above 25°C) and high humidity with annual rainfall above 100 cm. 
  • Question 8

    Which of the following soils is suitable for cultivation of tea?
    Solution
    Laterite soil
    Tea is grown in a variety of soils. The best, however, is a light friable loam with porous sub-soil which permits a free percolation of water, for tea is highly intol­erant to stagnant water. In general the most suitable soils are slightly acidic and without calcium.
    The presence of iron in sub-soil is desirable. On the sloping land which is most suitable for tea, soil erosion is often a problem. This is combated by planting tea bushes in lines along the contours.
