Human Population and Food Demand

Which farming practice involves cultivating a SINGLE crop extensively on a large scale?

• Crop rotation

• polyculture

• monoculture

• diversifies farming

Desertification primarily result from:

• reduced human activities

• consistent rainfall patterns

• soil conservation methods

• deterioration of land into desert-like conditions.

The Green Revolution mainly aimed to:

• reduced agricultural productivity

• enhanced traditional farming methods

• increase crop yields through technology advancements

• promote organic farming practices

Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs) are primarily developed to:

• decreased crop resistance to pests

• limit crop yield potential

• increase crop resistane to pests and enhance yield

• preserve natural biodiversity

How does monoculture affect biodiverisity?

• boost biodiversity

• has no impact on biodiveristy

• decreases biodiversity

• change biodiversity seasonally

What contributes significantly to desertification?

• Sustainable agricultural practices

• climate change

• controlled land use strategies

• reforestation initiatives

The Green Revolution primarily introduced:

• low-yielding crop varieties

• traditional farming practices

• high-yielding crop varieties and modern farming techniques

• reduce use of fertilizers

What ethical concerns are associated with GMOs?

• soil conservation issues

• consumers health risk

• increased biodiversity

• decreased crop yields

Desertification primarily occurs due to:

• consistent rainfall and lush vegetation

• sustainable agricultural practices

• overgrazing and deforestation

• controlled land use strategies

The Green Revolution significantly increased agricultural productivity by:

• introducing low-yielding crop varieties

• promoting organic farming practices

• adopting high-yielding crop varieties and modern farming techniques

• decreasing the use of fertilizers
