प्रश्न
What would happen if all the farmers were to use only one kind of seed and grow only one kind of crop?

उत्तर
It will be a scary situation. We cannot survive by eating just one kind of crop. We need dal and sabji, along with rice. We cannot eat a diet that contains only rice or only chapatti. We need much other food to satisfy our taste or also our nutritional needs.
