What is the primary characteristic of weeds in agriculture?
They are beneficial for crop growth
They compete with crops for resources
They are cultivated intentionally by farmers
They do not require any maintenance
Correct answer is B
The primary characteristic of weeds in agriculture is that they compete with crops for resources. Weeds are unwanted plants that grow in agricultural fields and compete with cultivated crops for sunlight, water, nutrients, and space. They can reduce crop yields by depriving crops of essential resources and sometimes release chemicals that inhibit crop growth.
