Question

which of the following is a reason why farmers frequently use a dss to determine appropriate fertilization and irrigation? multiple choice because most farms today are corporate - run, there is not the historical knowledge of what levels of irrigation and fertilization that was previously past down among families because most farms today are cover a large amount of acreage and plant many different types of crops a season, it is not possible for one farmer to determine differing amounts of irrigation and fertilization a dss can be used to predict the weather, eliminating the need for guessing how much irrigation and fenilization is needed weather patterns frequently change and cannot be predicted far in advance; therefore, the fertilization and irrigation needs are not consistent for a farmers crops.

Explanation:

A Decision Support System (DSS) helps process complex, variable data efficiently. Large, diverse farms have too many variables for a single farmer to manage manually, making a DSS a practical tool for tailored fertilization and irrigation. Other options are incorrect: family knowledge still exists on non-corporate farms, DSS does not fully eliminate weather guessing, and while weather changes, the key practical driver for DSS use is managing large, diverse farm operations.

Answer:

Because most farms today are cover a large amount of acreage and plant many different types of crops a season, it is not possible for one farmer to determine differing amounts of irrigation and fertilization
