A farmer floods his field everyday thinking that watering in the manner will result a better yield of his wheat crop. What will be the result of this action of the farmer
Answers
EXPLANATION:
If the ‘farmer floods’ his field everyday thinking that ‘watering in the manner’ will result a ‘better yield’ of his ‘wheat crop’, then he is to be at loss because over watering may result in flooding that yields the damage of the crop.
Over flooding of plants leads to the closing of the stomata that results in reduced respiration and transpiration that will reduce the development of a crop varieties.
Answer:This will lead to death of crops
Explanation: This is because the water gets clogged in the soil. The water occupies all the space that has been occupied by the air present in the soil. Due to the absence of air in the soil, the roots suffocate and the plant ultimately dies. Flooding the field also leads to alkaline and saline soil that is unsuitable for cultivation.
