Answer to Question 1

1 . Machinery specialized for the crop can be used to maximize efficiency of crop planting and harvest.
2 . Chemicals such as herbicides, insecticides, and fungicides can be used to target specific weed, insect, and microbial pests of the monocrop.
3 . Fertilizer systems can be developed to meet the nutrient needs of the crop by applying the nutrients at specific developmental stages.
4 . Specialized varieties are developed to efficiently use light, moisture, and other environmental resources.
5 . With monocultures, maturity and dry down of all plants within a variety is synchronized. This allows for a single harvest with reduced loss of grain due to spoilage.
