Factors Influencing Crop Yield - JSS2 Agricultural science Lesson Note
Several factors influence the productivity of crops, and understanding these factors is crucial for maximising yield. Such factors are:
- Climate: Temperature, precipitation, and sunlight significantly impact crop growth.
- Soil Fertility: The availability of essential nutrients in the soil is critical for plant development.
- Pest and Disease Management: Effective control measures to minimise losses due to pests and diseases.
