Question 20 • * SY2025-26 - 2002070 M/J Comprehensive Science 2 Sem 1 CR

Which would result a farmer in producing more food at a lower cost?

Answer
A
planting wheat that is resistant to weed killer
B
breeding pear trees that grow sweeter fruits
C
growing rice that only grows in warm climates
D
producing vegetable oil that has added vitamin A

Explanation

Wheat resistant to weed killer lets a farmer apply weed killer to control weeds without damaging the crop. With fewer weeds competing for water, nutrients, and sunlight, the farmer can produce more wheat and spend less on manual weed removal. Sweeter pears and vitamin-enriched oil change food qualities, while rice limited to warm climates does not necessarily increase yield or lower costs.
