Monoculture plantation in the forest area reduces the bio-diversity in that area is a true statement.
Explanation:
- Monoculture plantation in the forest area are mainly grown with commercial interests.
- Monoculture makes crops susceptible to many pathogens like fungi, bacteria, vectors etc.
- To combat this problem, farmers use more synthetic pesticides which pollute both soil and water and make it difficult for other plants to grow in the forest.
- When there are not many plants in the forest, many smaller organisms like insects, birds, and herbivores dependent on plants will not get enough food, which finally reduces their population.
- Reduction in herbivores will affect the survival of carnivores.
- Thus the whole forest ecosystem and its food web get disturbed reducing the biodiversity.
- Biodiversity should be preserved through sustainable cropping practices .
