Q185) Bee - keeping helps to improve the yield of following crops EXCEPT __________
( 1 ) Sunflower
( 2 ) Apple
( 3 ) Mustard
( 4 ) Jowar
Solution
Bees are attracted towards coloured flowers with nectar and bring about their cross pollination thereby helping in increasing yield.
Plants like sunflower apple and mustard are pollinated by bees. But jowar is not pollinated by bees, it's flowers are not showy and also lack nectar, since it is mostly wind pollinated.
Thus option 4 is the answer.
