Which crop can deplete maximum micro-nutrients from soil?

A. Rice

B. Maize

C. Wheat

D. Cowpea

Answer: Option B

Solution(By Examveda Team)

Maize is a crop that can deplete maximum micro-nutrients from the soil.
Soil nutrient depletion can be attributed to insufficient fertilizer use, unbalanced fertilization, and nutrient depletion-induced soil fertility problems.
Growing corn uses a lot of water and fertilizer, especially nitrogen and phosphorus and some of these production techniques, are coupled with the effects of climate change.
