Answer:

To prevent soil erosion farmers leave the stump and roots of harvested crops on the field and do not remove them.

Explanation:

Farmers leave the stump and roots of harvested crops on the field and do not remove them because they can increase the fertility of the soil or it is not of any use to them and they can burn it after some time also, they prevent soil erosion. Soil erosion is defined as the wearing away of a field's topsoil by the natural physical forces of water, so in the rainy season, the soil is washed off, to prevent them and to hold the soil stumps and roots are left, as they hold the soil and it prevents the soil erosion.

Hence, the farmers leave the stump and roots of harvested crops on the field and do not remove them to prevent soil erosion.

Answer:

Farmers leave the stump and roots of crops on the field to prevent soil erosion.

Explanation:

Soil erosion: When water or wind impact separates and removes soil particles, the soil deteriorates gradually as a result of soil erosion.

To increase the fertility of the soil and stop soil erosion, farmers do not remove the stumps and roots of harvested crops from the field. They hold the soil together, preventing it from being washed away by water or blown away by the wind, and they also enrich the humus/organic content of the soil when they rot and break down biologically in the soil.

To stop soil erosion, farmers leave the stump and roots of the harvested crops on the field.
