To get sweet sugarcane, what must be applied to the field?
Think it through first, then pick an option.
- a urea
- b potassium
- c boron
- d manganese
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: c boron
Boron has an indirect effect on the movement of sugar, so boron is applied for sweet sugarcane.
Why the other options are wrong
- a urea: “urea” does not fit here. Boron has an indirect effect on the movement of sugar, so boron is applied for sweet sugarcane.
- b potassium: “potassium” does not fit here. Boron has an indirect effect on the movement of sugar, so boron is applied for sweet sugarcane.
- d manganese: “manganese” does not fit here. Boron has an indirect effect on the movement of sugar, so boron is applied for sweet sugarcane.
