Boojho observed two farmers A and B working in the field. Farmer A harvested his field, added fertilizer to the soil and then planted the next crop. Farmer B did not plant anything in the field. Who do you think is correct? Farmer A/ Farmer B/ Both. Why?
Solution:
Farmers add fertilisers and manures to the field because fertilisers and manure conserves and enriches the fertility of the soil. When plants are grown again and again on the same soil, the soil becomes deficient in nutrients. Thus it is necessary to replenish the soil with these nutrients. In addition leaving the land fallow for sometime also helps in regaining its fertility. Hence, both the farmers are correct.
