Question

Give a scientific reason.

Weed control plants are beneficial for agriculture.

Answer 1

• Weeds naturally compete with main crops for essential resources like nutrients, water, and sunlight, significantly reducing overall crop yield.
• Genetically modified weed-resistant crops are designed to withstand specific herbicides that kill weeds.
• When farmers spray these herbicides, they selectively destroy weeds without harming the main crop, supporting better plant growth and maximising agricultural productivity.
