Q.97
Agricultural Meteorology- ICAR JRF/SRF 2024
Assertion & Reason +4 −1

Given below are two statements, one is labelled as Assertion (A) and other one labelled as Reason (R).

Assertion (A) : The crop weather calendar consists of three parts viz. crop husbandry, normal weather requirements and weather warnings
Reason (R) : The help in improving quality of agro-advisory based on medium range weather forecasting.

In light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below.

  • Assertion (A) is True: A Crop Weather Calendar ($CWC$) prepared by IMD consists of three integrated bands: (1) crop growth stages and phenology, (2) normal weather requirements and favorable thresholds, and (3) weather warnings and risk advisories for extreme events.
  • Reason (R) is True: CWCs provide agricultural forecasters with baseline phenological and threshold data to formulate crop-specific agro-meteorological advisories based on medium-range weather forecasts.
  • Relationship: Both statements are true, but Reason (R) describes the functional application of CWCs rather than the structural composition stated in Assertion (A).
  • Conclusion: Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is NOT the correct explanation of (A) (Option 2).

Correct option: (2) Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is NOT the correct explanation of (A).
