Question
What can happen to Hasmukh’s farm after some years?
Advertisements
Solution
Hasmukh’s farm will lose fertility after some years because Hasmukh is using chemical fertilizers. Hasmukh is in danger of falling into a debt trap as he has taken loans to buy tractors, seeds, and fertilizers. In the future, he may not be able to properly work on his farm.
