- Which of the following statements is correct? For this question 1 or more statements may be correct. If you select an incorrect statement you will lose points. When it comes to measuring the productivity of farms over the years USDA does not prefer looking at the crop yield per acre and the agricultural value-added per worker Productivity measures changes in the efficiency with which inputs are transformed into outputs The 3 special conditions of agriculture mentioned in the lectures are: biological, physical and market conditions Asset fixity is a problem because it is difficult to purchase the required capital equipment for farms Functional foods, are Foods designed to have only basic nutritional functions.Complete fertilizers, such as “Miracle Grow”, are the ideal fertilizer and are often used on agricultural crops.Group of answer choices True FalseAs scientists have developed more productive crop varieties, farmers have switched from growing many traditional varieties to new high-yield varieties. For example, in India, the 10,000 varieties of rice once grown have been reduced to 10 major ones for most of the rice crop. Why is this practice of reducing the varieties of a crop dangerous? Question options: It makes the overall crop more susceptible to pests and/or disease. It reduces the variety of crops available for human diets. it requires a larger investment than small farmers can make it could reduce or cause the extinction of some predatory insects
