Answer:
soil and vegetative matter screening for soil structure integrity and invasive pathogens
Explanation:
Repeated use of fertilizer causes the soil to break down and lose it nutrient capacity. This in turn will affect the integrity of the plants, now in a nutrient deficit environment. In addition to this, soil micro-biome environment may also be compromised once soil structure and nutrient is lost. Some of the bacteria, fungi and protozoan in the soil plays a role in defense against invasive pathogens. When this is lost the possibility for infection and increased risk of unknown pest and disease is imminent.
Answer:
Hypothesis : If Crop rotation is the employed then the risk of having a 70 - 90% mortality rate of vegetation is drastically reduced by 10%.
Explanation:
Mortality rate is the number of deaths per given unit of population over a given period of time.
The hypothesis should provide the possible answers to the questions formulated from this situation.
Hypothesis : If Crop rotation is the employed then the risk of having a 70 - 90% mortality rate of vegetation is drastically reduced by 10%.
Crop rotation, is a farming practice in which the same land is used to grow different crops in successive seasons or years (when once the land would have been left fallow); used to prevent erosion and increase fertility.
Action points:
Adopt: If after 3 month of planting monocot like maize (crop rotation) and then planting the vegetables the mortality rate reduces by 10%.
Reject: if after crop rotation the mortality rate is the same.
