उत्तर
This statement is false.
Explanation:
BOD (Biochemical Oxygen Demand) is a measure of the amount of oxygen required by bacteria and other microorganisms to decompose organic matter in water. It is used to assess the pollution load of water, especially to indicate the extent of organic pollution and microbial load in wastewater or natural water bodies, not soil. Higher BOD indicates higher microbial pollution in water.
