Q-11 Figure below shows the two crop fields (Plot A and Plot B) have been treated by
manures and chemical fertilizers respectively. Keeping other environmental factors same.
Observe the graph and answer the following questions:
(i) Why does the plot B show sudden increases and then gradual decrease in yield?
(ii) Why is the highest peak in a plot A graph slightly delayed?
(iii) What is the reason for the different pattern of the two graphs?

Answer:
(i) Plot B refers to chemical fertilisers which give short-term benefits because they are nutrient specific. The continuous use of fertilisers in an area destroy soil fertility so there is gradual decrease in yield after sometime. (ii) Manures help in enriching soil with nutrients and organic matter and increase the soil fertility. They also improve the soil structure. The plot A demonstrates the trend that the addition of manures into the soil have long term benefits in terms of high yield. (iii) Manures are natural ways of enriching the soil whereas fertilisers are commercially produced plant nutrients. They do not have organic matter like in manure to replenish the soil with useful microbes. Therefore, in plot A manures give high yield while plot B gives high yield for a short time and then it decreases

Explanation:
Answer:
(i) Plot B refers to chemical fertilisers
which give short-term benefits because
they are nutrient specific. The continuous
use of fertilisers in an area destroy soil
fertility so there is gradual decrease in
yield after sometime. (ii) Manures help in
enriching soil with nutrients and organic
matter and increase the soil fertility.
They also improve the soil structure.
The plot A demonstrates the trend that
the addition of manures into the soil
have long term benefits in terms of high
yield. (iii) Manures are natural ways of
enriching the soil whereas fertilisers are
commercially produced plant nutrients.
They do not have organic matter like in
manure to replenish the soil with useful
microbes. Therefore, in plot A manures
give high yield while plot B gives
high yield for a short time and then it
decreases
