Question

When aiming for yield improvement, why is it important to select crop varieties suited to the local climate?

The correct answer is

To prevent crop failure and ensure maximum productivity

Crop yield depends heavily on how well a variety matches local rainfall, temperature, soil and day length.

A variety suited to local climate grows and matures properly, resists local stresses (drought, flooding, heat) and is less likely to fail.

Hence choosing adapted varieties reduces the risk of crop failure and helps achieve maximum productivity; it is not mainly about equipment size, fertiliser use or labour cost.

Hence, To prevent crop failure and ensure maximum productivity.
