alfalfa
B.
sweet clover
C.
orchard grass
D.
brome grass

Answer 1

Answer:

John should use Orchard grass as a forage to control cotton-root diseases in his field.

Explanation:

• The orchard grass would act like an alternative fodder for the organisms causing the cotto-root disease in the field.
• Once the orchard grass is laid in the field, the organisms causing the root disease would leave the roots to feed on the orchard grass.
• The orchard grass, in turn, would act like a medicine and would kill the organisms causing the disease.
