| Crops require about 20 separate chemical elements to survive. Liebig’s law of the minimum states that the growth of a plant is affected by just one limiting factor at a time – the nutrient whose availability is the most limited to the needs of a plant. Based on this law, which of the following statements is true? (Points : 1) |
Increasing the limiting nutrient will improve soil production
Increased plowing will release nutrients and increase crop production
Irrigation will stimulate carbon turnover and increase crop production
Fertilization with a mixture including all of the soil micronutrients is necessary to improve crop growth
