Iron deficiency is a significant health problem in many parts of the world, particularly in developing countries where people may have limited access to nutrient-rich foods. Therefore, biofortification projects commonly target increasing the iron levels in crops such as rice, beans, sweet potato, cassava and legumes. Hence option 2 is the correct answer.
