Q1.How do biotic and abiotic factors affect crop production?
Answers (1)
Crop production can go down due to several factors. Biotic and Abiotic can be one of them. They are discussed below:
Biotic factors such as insects, nematodes, and diseases reduce crop production. Insects feed on the crop and end up destroying it.
Abiotic factors are natural factors like temperature, salinity, and waterlogging which also reduce crop production. Different crops require a different range of temperatures, hence, the wrong temperature can cause crop production to go down.
