The optimum range of temperature is required for tomato crop
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer:
Option
B
The optimum range of temperature is required for tomato crops 18° - 19°C.
Tomato is a warm-season crop. The best fruit colour and quality are obtained at a temperature range of 18° - 19°C. Temperatures above 32°C adversely affect the fruit set and development. The plants cannot withstand frost and high humidity.
It requires low to medium rainfall. Bright sunshine at the time of fruit set helps to develop dark red coloured fruits. Temperature below 10°C adversely affects plant tissues thereby slowing down physiological activities.
