Question

List three advantages of practising the process/technique by the farmers.

Answer 1

Advantages for farmers:

1. Faster propagation: Vegetative propagation is often faster than growing plants from seeds.
2. Preservation of desirable traits: It allows farmers to preserve desirable traits in the plants, such as high yield, disease resistance, or specific fruit characteristics. The offspring are genetically identical to the parent.
3. Seedless varieties: Vegetative propagation can be used to produce seedless varieties of plants like bananas.
