Let is share and post / paste here questions of various test series . If we crowd source enough, we know that questions will come from here. There was a thread of crowd sourced questions in the past, where @wunwun @burger @pizza and all had contributed and that year we had many questions come from there. 


Let us start this initiative. Also please follow the convention followed last year by @neyawn Sir, let us number the questions in a serial number.

(d) 1, 2 and 3

B? 

Answer according to key is D.

Explanation:

Modern agriculture improves the affordability of food, increases the food supply, ensured the food safety, increases the sustainability and oxygen content near the field due to increased photosynthesis and also produces more biofuels. But with the same time, it also leads to environmental problems because it is based on high input–high output technique using hybrid seeds of high-yielding variety and abundant irrigation water, fertilizers and pesticides.

Environmental Impacts are:

Soil erosion, Contamination of Groundwater, water logging & salinity, Eutrophication,Loss of Non target species, Micro nutrient imbalances 

& also

Increased photosynthetic rate: 

Fertilization of feilds stimulate the enhancements of net COassimilation rate . This COfertilization affects and promotes the mechanism of crop response by favoring greater photosynthesis and thus increasing the level of oxygen in turn.
