Question: A farmer comes to see you and ask for your help. His corn has low yield.
1. What kind of information you would need to know in order to help the farmer? (5 points)
Water
When corns were got deficient water. Thus, corns were not substrate for photosynthesis rate and stress. Corns produced less carbohydrates and starch that affect to yield. Root phenotype is long and short .long root is deep in soil for absorption of underground water. Short root is spread wide root at absorption of top soil for water and nutrients. When corns were got a lot of water or flood. Sometimes root of corns were not oxygen. Corn is low photosynthesis rate.
Light
Corns are low photosynthesis rate at low intensity light because photosynthetic pigments are …show more content…
Root hair length is long and root is long at deep soil.
And closed stomata whereas air is dry its connect to carbon dioxide and refer to accumulate food (photosynthesis).
3. How would you provide short and long-term solutions to help the farmer using the knowledge you had learnt in the class? (10 points).
Short-term
The first step Soil measures at soil analysis when we were got analysis results. Soil is acid. Farmer will apply CaCO3 compound. CaCO3 compound will help to adapt soil from acid soil to natural soil. Plants cannot use phosphorus because availability of phosphorus (P) in soils is phosphate ion. It has soluble water of phosphate.
Low of Phosphorus in soil. Farmer will add phosphorus fertilizer or Mar fertilizer, Dolomite fertilizer, Rock phosphate.
High of Phosphorus in soil, It may be phosphorus for function. Farmer must add water or microorganism living.
Agricultural practice
Crop rotation. He must be rotated plant for plant absorb nutrient. Other plant absorbs different volume and type of nutrient. long-term adaptation of soil structure for root. Root is good function. conventional breeding techniques is improved plant for phosphorus
